Abstract
A cleaning station for a mobile robot includes a fluid vessel and a roller arranged in the fluid vessel. The fluid vessel is shaped to hold a cleaning fluid that at least partially submerges the roller. The cleaning station includes a control system configured to, when the mobile robot is docked at the cleaning station, cause rotation of the roller to direct cleaning fluid from the fluid vessel to a cleaning pad of the mobile robot in order to release debris from the cleaning pad.
