English term or phrase: center pass
http://www.google.com/patents/EP2279686B1?cl=en

[0290] In accordance with one embodiment, the mobile robot 100 may clean a floor or other cleaning surface using a generally spiral path, for example. By choosing a spiral path in accordance with an effective width of the liquid applicator 700, for example, the robot can effectively deposit cleaning fluid over a maximal area of the cleaning surface. In such a case, a robot with a dominant side turns away from the dominant side, in order to have the dominant side (i.e. a side upon which the cleaning head extends to the edge, and upon which the robot follows obstacles) form the outside of the spiral. For a simple spiral, this can leave a spot that is uncleaned, e.g., where the cleaning head is offset to the right and the robot spirals to the left, the robot-bottom portion with no cleaning head coverage creates a small uncleaned circle in the center of the spiral (although this circle is temporary given that the robot will probably return randomly to the same spot before the end of the cleaning cycle). This can be addressed by following the spiral with a ***center pass*** based on dead reckoning, or by following the spiral with one or two figure-eights based on dead reckoning. However, in the case where the robot encounters a wall or obstacle before the spiraling method is to initiate the center pass, there remains some probability that this interruption will leave the uncleaned circle (reversing the direction of the spiral from the obstacle or arbitrarily may be used to reach the circle spot as well).
