Abstract
Autonomous robots and methods of operating the same are disclosed. An autonomous robot includes a sensor and memory including machine readable instructions. The autonomous robot further includes at least one processor to execute the instructions to generate a velocity costmap associated with an environment in which the robot is located. The processor generates the velocity costmap based on a source image captured by the sensor. The velocity costmap includes velocity information indicative of movement of an obstacle detected in the environment.
