Automatic recognition of multiple floorplans by cleaning robot
In one embodiment, a cleaning robot stores multiple floorplans. The robot automatically determines which floorplan it is in by localizing and trying to match its detected environment to the stored map. The best fit is the map for the current floor. If there is no match above a confidence threshold,...

Zusammenfassung: | In one embodiment, a cleaning robot stores multiple floorplans. The robot automatically determines which floorplan it is in by localizing and trying to match its detected environment to the stored map. The best fit is the map for the current floor. If there is no match above a confidence threshold, the robot assumes it is a new floor or the floorplan has changed (e.g., furniture has moved), and the robot initiates a discovery mode to map the floorplan and add it to the robot's memory. |
