Abstract
An indoor mobile industrial robot system is configured to provide a weight to a detected object within an operating environment, where the weight relates to how static the feature is. The indoor mobile industrial robot system includes a mechanism configured to translate reflected light energy and positional information into a set of data points representing the detected object having at least one of Cartesian and/or polar coordinates, and an intensity. If any discrete data point within the set of data points representing the detected object has an intensity at or above a defined threshold the entire set of data points is converted into a weight and potentially classified representing a static feature, otherwise such set of data points is classified as representing a dynamic feature having a lower weight.
