Abstract
Systems and apparatuses (e.g., mobile robots) including sensor systems, and methods involving sensor systems are provided. In one method, a region of an environment is surveyed using a sensor system to provide survey data. This survey data may be indicative of one or more items located within the surveyed region of the environment. One of more of the items located within the surveyed region may be inventoried based on the survey data.
