Filed under: Robots
It's the stuff robotic room-cleaner nightmares are made of. According to The Onion, Ken Graney's third-gen Roomba (with Scheduler) is among the first known to have actually shattered iRobot's three prescribed laws of Roombotics:- Roombots must not suck up jewelry or other valuables, or through inaction, allow valuables to be sucked up.
- Roombots must obey vacuuming orders given to it by humans except when such orders would conflict with the first law.
- Roombots are authorized to protect their own ability to suction dust and debris as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law.
