1. An autonomous sweeper, comprising:
a sweeper module;
a robot chassis having a length along a pair of sides, a front side, a back side and a top side that define an interior space, the sweeper module is configured to fit within the interior space when the robot chassis moves over the sweeper module;
a pair of wheels disposed proximate to the back side of the robot chassis and a single wheel disposed proximate to the front side;
a pair of scissor lifts disposed along said pair of sides;
a lift frame attached to the pair of scissor lifts, the lift frame including alignment pegs that fit into corresponding alignment holes disposed on a top side of the sweeper module, wherein the lift frame is raised and lowered by said pair of scissor lifts;
wherein said scissor lifts assist in lifting the sweeper module while aligning said sweeper module to the robot chassis using said alignment pegs and alignment holes.
