Some serious actionable feedback

I would like to highlight some more deficiencies on top of others that I previously fed back to Dreamie. These should be easily resolved.

1. Do not wash the mop pads both at the end of a task, and then again at the start of a task. The robot should remember the fact that the pads have already been cleaned. It wastes energy and twice the amount of water because of this glitch, meaning that the water tanks need to be emptied and refilled almost twice as frequently. The robot also some times for no reason starts washing the pads (for example when you request that it hoovers a carpet). It immediately wets the pads before the user has a chance to cancel the invalud action. This means that the system then needs to spend 3 hours of electricity to dry the clan pads again for no real reason.

2. There should be mote commands like
STOP
PAUSE
ABORT
VACUUM HERE
MOP HERE
VACUUM "#ROOM" (not just Clean #room)
All commands should have two versions with VACUUM replaced by HOOVER for British (non American) English speakers.
Variants of voice commands like "return to base", "go home" etc.

3. The map should be editable allowing the user to correct the walls layout of their home, and perhaps even the routing. This (human intelligence) is the missing link between a product that kind of works, and a product that works great.

4. The map should be optimised during each cleaning session.

5. The robot should not give up hoovering/moping small sections of floor which exist between a carpet and the wall. It currently gives up when a carpet is present and leaves the edges of the kitchen dirty. It knows it is cleaning a kitchen so normally it should go around the edges and hoover them meticulously with the brush arm extended and active. This is FUNDAMENTAL.

6. It should be possible to draw polygon no-go zones, and extra-cleaning zones.

7. Resolve the bug where the robot tries to return to base after completing an 'extra cleaning here" zone and resumming its normal task. This happens when the normal task has been interrupted by an "extra cleaning here" request. This wastes time and energy travelling to and from the Base for no reason, even when the "extra cleaning zone" is within the room being cleaned by the active routine.

8. Use the camera and the sensors better to avoid bumping into obstacles.

9. Optimise and remember cleaning routes to speed up the cleaning process and avoid wasting time and battery charge.

10. Optimise and remember travel paths to speed up travelling between zones and avoid bumping into the same obstacles over and over again. When a room is designated as "Hallway" or "Corridor", use it to travel through it instead of trying to re-royte itself live through other rooms like the dining room (in open plan homes), which have lots of obstacles.

11. Stop vacuuming when travelling to the next area to reserve battery life. Battery life is very limited meaning that the robot has to recharge to be able to handle just 110 square meters and it takes serveral hours to compete its tasks.

12. It should be possible to view the routing results of at least the last cleaning session, if not several older sessions, and the user should be also able to improve the routing interactively.

13. Quick mapping should be renamed Mapping, and it should optimize an existing mature map rather than creating in inferior new map.
