BASE STATION FOR CONNECTION WITH A SURFACE TREATMENT DEVICE, SYSTEM COMPRISED OF A SURFACE TREATMENT DEVICE AND BASE STATION, AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A BASE STATION
The invention relates to a surface treatment device (1), in particular a cleaning robot, having at least one optical device element (3) and an evaluation unit (5). In order to provide additional functionalities of the surface treatment device (1), according to the invention, for interaction with an external element, the optical device element (3) is configured such that light emitted by the optical device element (3) is at least partially reflected to an optical device element (3) by means of the external element. The evaluation unit (5) is configured such that during an interaction of the optical device element (3) and the external element for the purpose of detecting a presence of smoke (7) between the optical device element (3) and the external element, the evaluation unit evaluates a measurement signal received by the optical device element (3) with respect to a temporal change in signal amplitude, and to trigger an alarm signal when a defined threshold value has been passed.
