ABSTRACT

A robot includes an optical marker disposed to be visible in a top-view image
of the robot, a receiver configured to receive a top-down image of an area of
interest surrounding the robot within a property, and a processor configured
to distinguish the robot from structural features on the property based on an
image of the optical marker. A position and an orientation of the robot and
the structural features relative to the property is determined based on the
top-down image. Among the structural features, a subset of features classified
as obstacles inhibiting an operation of the robot as the robot moves within
the area of interest is determined. An operating path for the robot within the
area of interest so as to avoid the obstacles is then determined.
