Most robotic vacuum cleaners don't map anything at all, they just run around semi-randomly.
Some of them are a little smarter and map your room internally in order to be a bit more efficient and move in more predictable patterns.
And finally, there are a few expensive models that are connected and are able to upload your floor plan. If you don't want to take advantage of that feature you paid good money for, it is a simple matter of not letting the robot in your home WiFi.
The first category of robots start at around $100 and do a decent job at cleaning. I don't think you really need more.
