Abstract

A method for generating a routable map of a spatial environment, the method comprising the steps of: positioning a transponder in a location within said spatial environment at least one sensor; associating at least one sensor with said transponder, said at least one sensor being rotatable in at least one plane; measuring distances within said spatial environment with said at least one sensor relative to said location; and composing a local map model of spatial environment based on said measurements.
