Autonomous refuse container replacement system

A robotic refuse container system, comprising:

• a first robotic refuse container, comprising:
• a chassis;
• a set of wheels;
• a rechargeable battery;
• a processor;
• a refuse container coupled to the chassis;
• a plurality of sensors;
• and
• a tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable medium storing instructions that when executed by the processor effectuates operations comprising:
• collecting, by the plurality of sensors, sensor data;
• determining, by the processor, a movement path of the first robotic refuse container from a first location to a second location;
• transmitting, by the processor of a first robotic refuse container, a request for replacement to a processor of at least one robotic refuse container;
• receiving, by the processor of the first robotic refuse container, a return signal from the processor of the at least one robotic refuse container that received the request for replacement;
• transmitting, by the processor of the first robotic refuse container, a confirmation for replacement to a processor of a second robotic refuse container in response to a return signal received from the processor of the second robotic refuse container from among all the return signals received;
• and
• instructing, by the processor of the first robotic refuse container, the first robotic refuse container to navigate to another location from a current location;
• the second robotic refuse container, comprising:
• a chassis;
• a set of wheels;
• a rechargeable battery;
• a processor;
• a refuse container coupled to the chassis;
• a plurality of sensors;
• and
• a tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable medium storing instructions that when executed by the processor of the second robotic refuse container effectuates operations comprising:
• instructing, by the processor of the second robotic refuse container, the second robotic refuse container to navigate to the current location of the first robotic refuse container;
• and
• wherein:
• the at least one robotic refuse container that receives the request for replacement is within a first predetermined distance from the first robotic refuse container;
• the processor of the at least one robotic refuse container effectuates operations comprising:
• capturing, by a first sensor of the at least one robotic refuse container, sensor data indicative of a battery level of the second robotic refuse container;
• and
• capturing, by a second sensor of the at least one robotic refuse container, sensor data indicative of a refuse container fill volume of the refuse container of the second robotic refuse container;
• the at least one robotic refuse container that transmits the return signal has the battery level above a predetermined threshold and a refuse container fill volume less than a predetermined threshold.
