Abstract

Systems, apparatus, and methods to facilitate docking of robotic vehicles with platforms are disclosed. An example apparatus includes memory; machine readable instructions; and processor circuitry to execute the machine readable instructions to identify a property associated with a platform; determine a confidence associated with docking the platform and an autonomous vehicle based on the property associated with the platform; identify a positioning maneuver to be performed by the autonomous vehicle relative to the platform based on the confidence and the property of the platform; and output an instruction to cause the autonomous vehicle to perform the positioning maneuver.
