摘要： A system and a method for generating a navigation path for an autonomous system. The method comprises receiving data comprising characteristics of entities, the entities defining an environment in which the autonomous system is configured to operate; receiving first instructions causing the autonomous system to identify a destination in the environment; generating a navigation path comprising waypoints to be followed by the autonomous system to reach the destination, the waypoints being generated based on the characteristics of the entities and defining segmental paths; executing second instructions causing the autonomous system to navigate along the navigation path; and upon navigating from a first waypoint to a second waypoint: accessing updates of the characteristics of the entities located in a vicinity of a corresponding segmental path; generating a sub-path between the first waypoint and the second waypoint based on second information; and navigating along the sub-path to reach the second waypoint.

摘要： Provided are systems and methods for orientating a robot relative to a lawn mower. The system may include at least one processor configured to determine first object data associated with a first component of the lawn mower based on a first signal received from a sensor, where the first signal is detected at a first location. The processor may be configured to control a drive system to drive from the first location to a second location based on the first object data. The processor may be configured to determine second object data associated with a second component of the lawn mower based on a second signal received from the sensor, where the second signal is detected at the second location. The processor may be configured to control the robot to perform a task based on the second object data.
