Disassembling a Roomba 560

This page is dedicated to the disassembling of a Roomba 560 vacuuming robot. Its purpose is to provide AIRLab users (or anyone else) wanting to hack a Roomba with a guide to the process, so that they can plan their work easily. Other Roomba 500-series models should be similar to the one featured in this page.

Please note that the robot we have taken apart was well-used, so you will see a fair bit of dust and dirt on the parts... all for the sake of realism (just joking... simply, that was a broken robot we could spare :-) ).

The images included into this tutorial are low-resolution (480x320 pixels). You can download high-resolution versions of them (and some other) | from here.
