How it works¶
ALBattery retrieves battery data, processes it and raises events and notifications according to the situation.
Performance and Limitations¶
Remaining time¶
When a BatteryLow notification is raised, the remaining time depends on the use that is
made of the robot:
- when sitting, a few minutes of battery might remain,
- when walking battery could be empty within 30 seconds.
Use Cases¶
Detect that the battery is low so as to warn the user.
Detect some action (eg. a system upgrade) can be performed with no risk of power loss, by checking if the battery sufficiently charged or connected to the charger.
