Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating interactions between a robotic arm and a movable platform using radio frequency (RF) co-localization are provided. The systems include target devices; an interrogator system comprising RF antennas, each of the RF antennas configured to transmit RF signals to the target devices and/or receive RF signals from the target devices; and a controller. The controller is configured to control at least one of the RF antennas to transmit one or more first RF signals to a target device coupled to a movable platform; control at least some of the RF antennas to receive second RF signals from at least the target device; determine a position of the movable platform using the received second RF signals; and determine, using the position of the movable platform, a target position to which to move an end effector of a robotic arm in order to perform a task.
