ABSTRACT

Systems and techniques for controlling a mobile robot. In an example, the
system may include a processor and memory, including instructions, which when
executed by the processor, cause the processor to determine a state of the
mobile robot. The state of the mobile robot may be determined using at least
one of: data provided by the mobile robot or data captured by one or more
sensors proximate to or attached to the mobile robot. The system may determine
a state of an object proximate to the mobile robot using the data captured by
the one or more sensors, and identify information relating to one or more
available stopping points. The system may identify a condition of the mobile
robot that requires the mobile robot to stop and issue a command to the mobile
robot to navigate to a particular one of the one or more available stopping
points.
