Abstract:
A system may include a robot that includes (1) an imaging device that generates image data corresponding to a field of view of the imaging device and (2) a mobility subsystem that moves the robot. The system may also an imaging subsystem that (1) tracks the image data, (2) detects an object of interest in the field of view of the imaging device, and (3) generates region-of-interest image data that includes only a portion of the tracked image data corresponding to a region of interest. Additionally, the system may include a positioning subsystem that (1) determines an initial proximity of the robot to the object of interest and (2) determines a target location for the robot. Various other robots, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
