This particular robo vac doesn't map your house, but does have IR sensors to avoid hitting everything. No mapping means you can't setup rooms, etc.
But this does have a back and forth option, which is way better than the old smack the wall and go into a random direction. This is more systematic in the way it can clean a room.
For some folks this may be all they need. Can't beat $100 for a decent robo vac with mopping capability.
EDIT: I have a Deeboot N79 (way stupid vac) and a Ozmo T8+, both of which are good vacs. I def recommend Ecovacs as a brand.
"The infrared sensor around the front of the U2's bumper powers the bot's anti-collision tech. We found it works well when it comes to wall avoidance – stopping just short of large barriers – but it's not quite as proficient at avoiding smaller obstacles like furniture legs.
During our testing, the U2 bumped into chairs and table legs in our test space during every cleaning run, extracting itself from within this obstacle course the same way a bumper car would – awkwardly bumping back and forth until it was free."

Infrared doesn't prevent it from hitting things. The vacuum uses infrared to find it's way back to the charge base, just like a tv remote communicating with it's tv. The vacuum will bump into things and use sensors on the front bumper to continuously bump until it is free.

i once purchase non-map vacbot. it was exciting at first but they get annoying real fast. Because they take forever to clean and bump into everything because they have to map the place out for every clean. AVOID!
spend a $100+ more for a vacbot that save the room map so they know where the walls at next time they clean. That save you plenty of cleaning time. Google assistant/alexa connectivity is another neat feature incase you want the bot to dock early.

I went with the buy now think later option and I'm having second thoughts. I'm gone more than 8 hours a day so do I really care if this has to bump into stuff every cycle?

Fine enough, until it breaks.
I had two failures within 2 years. They replaced the first, 2nd failed the same way less then a year later, they offered me 10% off as a 'sorry'
For $100, eh. But they're not the only $100 option and I've had bad experiences with their idea of a reliable product.
