Does Roomba need supervision? Or can I just set it and leave the room?
Thankfully, Roomba needs no supervision. You can just press clean and let your Roomba get to work. In fact, select models of Roomba come with Virtual Wall Lighthouse which contains Roomba in one room until it is completely vacuumed, then directs it to clean the next room. You can also use this feature to block off-limit areas.

What is the difference between Lighthouse and Virtual Wall?
Depending on the mode selected, a Virtual Wall Lighthouse (VWLH) can act as both a Lighthouse and a Virtual Wall.
• Virtual Wall mode completely blocks off areas you don't want your robot to access.
• Lighthouse mode acts as a gate, automatically blocking and opening designated areas during Roomba's mission to allow Roomba to efficiently clean multiple rooms. After the Roomba has completed cleaning each area as designated by a VWLH, the VWLH guides Roomba back to its home base.(Note: Maximum cleaning time per room is 25 minutes.)
For example: Your Roomba and home base are located in the family room (Room 1). You also would like your Roomba to clean an adjacent bedroom (Room 2) and office (Room 3). You place a lighthouse in the doorway from Room 1 to Room 2, and an additional lighthouse in the doorway from Room 1 to Room 3.
When Roomba completes cleaning Room 1, the VWLH opens allowing Roomba to navigate to and clean Room 2. After Roomba completes cleaning Room 2, the VWLH opens, allowing Roomba to navigate to and clean Room 3. After all rooms are cleaned (or when Roomba's battery runs low), the VWLH guides Roomba back to its home base to recharge.
