    Abstract: A storage medium, a robot, and a method for generating navigation map are provided. By disposing a first lidar and a second lidar located higher than the first lidar, it constructs a first map corresponding to the first lidar based on first laser data collected by the first lidar, and calculate second positioning data corresponding to the second lidar during constructing the first map, constructs a second map corresponding to the second lidar based on the second positioning data and second laser data collected by the second lidar, and obtains a navigation map corresponding to the robot by fusing the first map with the second map, such that the fused map includes not only positioning information provided by the first map, but also obstacle information provided by the first map and the second map.

    Abstract: A method for generating intermediate waypoints for a navigation system of a robot includes receiving a navigation route. The navigation route includes a series of high-level waypoints that begin at a starting location and end at a destination location and is based on high-level navigation data. The high-level navigation data is representative of locations of static obstacles in an area the robot is to navigate. The method also includes receiving image data of an environment about the robot from an image sensor and generating at least one intermediate waypoint based on the image data. The method also includes adding the at least one intermediate waypoint to the series of high-level waypoints of the navigation route and navigating the robot from the starting location along the series of high-level waypoints and the at least one intermediate waypoint toward the destination location.
