ABSTRACT

A robot includes a body that is movable relative to a surface one or more
measurement devices within the body to output information based on an
orientation of the body at an initial location on the surface, and a
controller within the body to determine an orientation of the body based on
the information and to restrict movement of the body to an area by preventing
movement of the body beyond a barrier that is based on the orientation of the
body and the initial location.
