Abstract: An apparatus, system and method of for certifying a sensor that at least partially navigates an autonomous mobile robot. The apparatus may include at least a robot body; at least one light source resident on the robot body proximate to the sensing camera such that the at least one light source is capable of at least partially irradiating a field of view (FoV) of the sensing camera, wherein the at least one light source has characteristics substantially mated to the sensing camera; and at least one processing system that provides the at least partial navigation. The at least one processing system may execute the steps of: actuating the at least one light source at a predetermined time and for a predetermined duration; monitoring data from the sensing camera for confirmation of the actuating; calculating at least one of the latency, throughput, and reactivity of the sensing camera based on the monitoring; and at least partially navigating based on the calculating.

Abstract: An apparatus, system and method of operating an autonomous mobile robot having a height of at least one meter. The apparatus, system and method may include a robot body; at least two three-dimensional depth camera sensors affixed to the robot body proximate to the height, wherein the at least two three-dimensional depth camera sensors are both directed toward a major floor surface from the affixation and, in combination, comprise an at least substantially 360 degree field of view of the major floor surface around the robot body; and a processing system for receiving of data within the field of view from the at least one three-dimensional depth camera sensor, detecting the presence of a plurality of AR tags on the upper surface of the charging base, calculating a virtual alignment point associated with the center of the robot docking connector, calculating a virtual alignment point associated with the center of the charging base docking connector, and outputting a path of travel between the center of the charging base docking connector and the center of the robot docking connector, whereby a physical connection is made.
