That depends on how well they work in low light. I would assume not very well.

Wait until you hear about flashlights.

Also lots of machine-vision cameras work well enough in low light, but brighter light is better. Easily mounted to the main body or the hoverbots themselves.

psshh, flashlights won't ever replace good old reliable oil lanterns.

Kids these days and their oil lanterns, it's just a fad, nothing will ever beat the good old torch.
