Context based path planning for vector navigation in hexagonal spatial maps

A system (100), comprising:

• a memory (102) storing instructions;
• one or more communication interfaces (106);
• and
• one or more hardware processors (104) coupled to the memory (102) via the one or more communication interfaces (106), wherein the one or more hardware processors (104) are configured by the instructions to:
• obtain and represent a two-dimensional (2D) environment into a hexagonal grid map, wherein the hexagonal grid map comprises a plurality of hexagonal grid cells;
• identify one or more objects based on a comparison of Red Green Blue (RGB) value associated with a plurality of two or more contiguous cells from the plurality of hexagonal grid cells, wherein the one or more objects are identified based on number of hexagonal centers and distance of center of each hexagonal grid cell from center of one or more hexagonal grid cells;
• identify one or more candidate contexts based on a tuple created for the identified one or more objects;
• iteratively perform a comparison of the hexagonal grid map with one or more pre-stored hexagonal grid maps, wherein the hexagonal grid map is transformed to one or more variations and iteratively compared with the one or more pre-stored hexagonal grid maps obtained from a map database to determine a Spatial Similarity Quotient (SSQ), wherein the Spatial Similarity Quotient is indicative of degree of overlap of the hexagonal grid map with at least one of the one or more pre-stored hexagonal grid maps;
• identify one or more contexts from the one or more candidate contexts based on the determined spatial similarity quotient;
• and
• dynamically plan a path for vector navigation within the hexagonal grid map based on the one or more objects, and the identified one or more contexts.
