A system and a method are disclosed where a robot operating using a first traversal protocol traverses autonomously along a first route that is defined by markers that are detectable by the robot, wherein the robot is configured to move only based on a presence and type of each marker when the robot is configured to operate based on the first traversal protocol. The robot detects, while traversing along the route, a triggering condition corresponding to a change in operation by the robot from the first traversal protocol to a second traversal protocol. Responsive to detecting the triggering condition, the robot is configured to operate in the second traversal protocol, wherein the robot, when configured to operate based on the second traversal protocol, determines a second route autonomously without regard to a presence of any of the markers.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising memory with instructions encoded thereon that, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform operations, the instructions comprising instructions to:
The non-transitory computer readable medium of 1, wherein, while operating based on the first traversal protocol, the robot determines, when encountering each marker, a direction in which the marker is associated, and travels in that direction until reaching another marker.
The non-transitory computer readable medium of 1, wherein the instructions to detect the triggering condition comprise instructions to:
The non-transitory computer readable medium of 3, wherein the user defined the final marker as the last marker for non-autonomous routing by making a selection of the final marker on a map interface.
The non-transitory computer readable medium of 1, wherein the instructions to detect the triggering condition comprise instructions to detect that the robot has moved to a location associated with autonomous routing.
The non-transitory computer readable medium of 1, wherein the instructions to detect the triggering condition comprise instructions to detect an absence of obstacles or people.
The non-transitory computer readable medium of 1, wherein the instructions to detect the triggering condition comprise instructions to detect that a boundary has been crossed.
The non-transitory computer readable medium of 7, wherein the boundary is detected using a camera sensor of the robot.
The non-transitory computer readable medium of 7, wherein the boundary is detected based on a comparison of a current location of the robot to a boundary indicated in a map.
