ABSTRACT

System and techniques to map a workspace for a robotic device are described
herein. The robotic device has a movable portion with a sensor that is used to
capture readings from part of the workspace. These readings are used to map a
portion of the workspace and then to plot a new position of the movable
portion to get readings for another part of the workspace. As the technique
iterates, the robotic device is able to safely and efficiently map the
entirety of the workspace.
