Datacenter detection and authentication techniques

A system, comprising:

• memory configured to store instructions;
• and
• one or more processors configured to execute the instructions for:
• monitoring, by a robotic device, a physical space, the physical space comprising a portion of a datacenter;
• detecting, by the robotic device, a person within the physical space;
• attempting to authenticate the detected person by an authentication process comprising:
• prompting, by the robotic device, the detected person to authenticate themselves;
• receiving, by the robotic device, an authentication credential from the detected person;
• determining, by the robotic device, whether the authentication of the detected person has passed;
• and
• in accordance with a determination that the authentication of the detected person has failed, performing an action commensurate with the determination that the authentication has failed.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• monitoring, by a robotic device, a physical space, the physical space comprising a portion of a datacenter;
• detecting, by the robotic device, a person within the physical space;
• attempting to authenticate the detected person by an authentication process comprising:
• prompting, by the robotic device, the detected person to authenticate themselves;
• receiving, by the robotic device, an authentication credential from the detected person;
• determining, by the robotic device, whether the authentication of the detected person has passed;
• and
• in accordance with a determination that the authentication of the detected person has failed, performing an action commensurate with the determination that the authentication has failed.
