The Virtual Wall beam is shaped like a keyhole. A beam is set to create a small halo that prevents the robot from bumping into the wall. A larger cone-shaped section then impedes the cleaner from going into places you marked as restricted.

The higher models, such as the iRobot Roomba 535 Floor Cleaner, come with Virtual Wall Lighthouses that were created to help the Roomba navigate around your home, find the Home Base, and allow the Roomba to clean one room before proceeding to its next task. When you set the robot to the Virtual Wall mode, you can indicate areas that off-limit and assure yourself that the cleaner will never cross the line.

When it is set to the Lighthouse mode, the Virtual Wall Lighthouse helps Roomba navigate around the room and clean an area at a time. All you need to do is place the lighthouses in the doorway between the two rooms. Roomba will begin to clean the first room before it navigates to the next room. Once the Roomba has completed cleaning, it uses the lighthouses as guide to navigate itself back to its Homebase.

The generations of Roomba units continue to improve itself. Its ultimate goal is to make cleaning easier for housewives and homemakers.

The makers behind this technology have made sure that using the iRobot Roomba is easy. Just to prove to you how simple it is, take a look at the steps:
The contact bumper installed in the machine is able to detect walls and furniture so that it does not bump into it or break anything. The Virtual Walls can also be used to limit the areas. The infrared signal set by the Walls tells the Roomba which areas to cover. The infrared sensors found at the bottom of the unit prevent the mechanism from falling off stairs and ledges. They also have additional dirt sensors that detect dirty spots so that these areas can be cleaned thoroughly.

The design is based on the philosophy of Rodney Brooks, an MIT researcher and iRobot CTO.  He believes that robots should be like insects that are equipped with simple control mechanisms tuned to their environments. The result behind this principle is the best cleaning aid that any household could possibly have.
