Abstract

See full text

A mobile robot can have a safety system that is configured to stop the mobile robot when an object is detected inside of a safety zone. The size of the safety zone can change based on the speed of the robot. The robot can predict future safety zones and determine whether objects would be inside of the predicted future safety zones. The robot can change its trajectory, such as by slowing down, so that the actual safety zone of the robot avoids the object. Accordingly, the mobile robot can avoid the object without stopping and without triggering the safety system of the robot. The mobile robot is configured to look ahead and predict likely safety events, and then take action to avoid the predicted safety events.
