Abstract
A robotic device, including a tangible, non-transitory, machine readable medium storing instructions that when executed by a processor effectuates operations including: capturing, with the camera, one or more images of an environment of the robotic device; capturing, with the plurality of sensors, sensor data of the environment; generating or updating, with the processor, a map of the environment; identifying, with the processor, one or more rooms in the map; receiving, with the processor, one or more multidimensional arrays including at least one parameter that is used to identify a feature included in the one or more images; determining, with the processor, a position and orientation of the robotic device relative to the feature; and transmitting, with the processor, a signal to the processor of the controller to adjust a heading of the robotic device.
