Abstract
A a method for robotic assistance continuity to a pedestrian using gait recognition. The method includes determining a gait pattern of the pedestrian based on analysis of visual data obtained at a first position. The pedestrian is provided assistance based on a query at the first position. The pedestrian is identified at a subsequent position by identifying the gait pattern from analysis of visual data obtained at the subsequent position. The need for additional pedestrian assistance is determined at the subsequent position.
