- roombas are worn out, cant dock themselves anymore using seek dock
- completely redesign the user facing docking process
- get rid of the auto dock instructions
- replace it with a flow for manual docking mode:
- does a little explanation
- line up your round front sensor with the sensor on the dock
- maybe show a video or an image in the HUD to assist
- plays a song on the roomba to indicate that "docking mode" has been entered even though its all client side.
- forces the camera to look all the way down so people can see their round front sensor
- limits movement speed to be very slow to help people be more precise
- MAYBE try some computer vision stuff that runs server-side and guides people? sounds hard and slow and not worth it.
