1. A method of navigating an area using a mobile robotic device, the method comprising:

  • receiving, from a video camera, information associated with an edge located on a surface;

    determining, by a mobile robotic device, a position of the mobile robotic device on the surface relative to the edge; and

    using the received information to move the mobile robotic device from the determined position along a path, wherein the path is substantially parallel to the edge, wherein the edge is located a distance from a reference point on the mobile robotic device during movement of the mobile robotic device.
