Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022173343A1] A robotic work tool (100) configured to operate in a work area (205), the robotic work tool (100) comprising a controller (110) configured to cause the robotic work tool to follow (410) a first side (S1) of the work area (205) at a distance for the first side (S1); determine (420) that an end (EP1, EP2) has been reached and in response thereto cause the robotic work tool to make a turn (430) and follow (440) the first side (S1) of the work area (205) at a next distance; determine that a middle (M) has been reached (450) and in response thereto cause the robotic work tool to proceed to a second side (S2) and follow (470) the second side (S2) of the work area (205) at a first distance for the second side (S2); determine that an end (EP1, EP2) has been reached and in response thereto cause the robotic work tool to make a turn and follow (480) the second side (S2) of the work area (205) at a next distance.
