1.1.4 Robot Vacuum Cleaner 
The BNO080 can be integrated into a robot vacuum cleaner, providing heading information to fuse with cameras 
to allow navigation (SLAM – Simultaneous Localization and Mapping application). The BNO080 can also provide 
details on the tilt of the vacuum and by virtue of the included accelerometer can serve as a bump detector.
