Abstract

An autonomous mobile robot includes a chassis, a drive supporting the chassis above a floor surface in a home and configured to move the chassis across the floor surface, a variable height member being coupled to the chassis and being vertically extendible, a camera supported by the variable height member, and a controller. The controller is configured to operate the drive to navigate the robot to locations within the home and to adjust a height of the variable height member upon reaching a first of the locations. The controller is also configured to, while the variable height member is at the adjusted height, operate the camera to capture digital imagery of the home at the first of the locations.

Claims (35)

1. An autonomous mobile robot comprising:

a body;

a drive configured to move the autonomous mobile robot about an environment;

one or more sensors configured to capture data indicative of the environment;

one or more navigation sensors configured to determine a location of the autonomous mobile robot within the environment; and

a controller electrically connected to the drive, the one or more sensors, and the one or more navigation sensors, the controller configured to perform operations comprising:

accessing data indicative of a restriction zone within the environment, wherein accessing the data indicative of the restriction zone comprises receiving, from a user computing device in wireless communication with the autonomous mobile robot, data indicative of a user selection of the restriction zone;

determining that the location of the autonomous mobile robot is within the restriction zone of the environment; and

controlling a behavior of the one or more sensors in response to determining that the location of the autonomous mobile robot is within the restriction zone, wherein controlling the behavior of the one or more sensors comprises retracting the one or more sensors into the body of the autonomous mobile robot in response to entering the restriction zone.

2. The autonomous mobile robot of claim 1 , wherein the behavior comprises limiting the data capture of the one or more sensors.

3. The autonomous mobile robot of claim 2 , wherein the one or more sensors comprise one or more imaging sensors configured to capture images of the environment.

4. The autonomous mobile robot of claim 3 , wherein the behavior comprises limiting the capture of images of the environment by the one or more imaging sensors.

5. The autonomous mobile robot of claim 1 , wherein the behavior comprises a movement of the one or more sensors relative to the body of the autonomous mobile robot.

6. The autonomous mobile robot of claim 5 , wherein the movement of the one or more sensors at least a partially obscures the one or more sensors.

7. The autonomous mobile robot of claim 1 , wherein the behavior comprises changing a speed of the autonomous mobile robot in response to entering the restriction zone.

8. The autonomous mobile robot of claim 7 , wherein the behavior further comprises limiting the data capture of the one or more sensors while the location of the autonomous mobile robot is within the restriction zone.

9. A method comprising:

accessing data indicative of a restriction zone of an environment of an autonomous mobile robot, wherein accessing the data indicative of the restriction zone comprises receiving, from a user computing device in wireless communication with the autonomous mobile robot, data indicative of a user selection of the restriction zone;

determining that a location of the autonomous mobile robot is within the restriction zone of the environment; and

controlling a behavior of one or more sensors of the autonomous mobile robot in response to determining that the location of the autonomous mobile robot is within the restriction zone, wherein controlling the behavior of the one or more sensors comprises retracting the one or more sensors into a body of the autonomous mobile robot in response to entering the restriction zone.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein controlling the behavior of the one or more sensors comprises limiting data capture of the environment by the one or more sensors.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein controlling the behavior of the one or more sensors comprises stopping data capture of the environment by the one or more sensors.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the one or more sensors comprise one or more imaging sensors and controlling the behavior of the one or more sensors comprises limiting a capture of images of the environment by the one or more imaging sensors.

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein controlling the behavior of the one or more sensors comprises moving the one or more sensors relative to a body of the autonomous mobile robot.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein moving the one or more sensors relative to the body of the autonomous mobile robot at least a partially obscures the one or more sensors.

15. The method of claim 9 , wherein the behavior comprises changing a speed of the autonomous mobile robot in response to entering the restriction zone.

16. A user computing device comprising:

a wireless transceiver configured to communicate with a communication network;

a display interface; and

a controller operably connected to the wireless transceiver and the display interface, the controller configured to execute instructions to perform operations comprising:

causing a representation of an environment of an autonomous mobile robot to be presented on the display interface;

receiving, via the display interface, data indicative of a user selection of a restriction zone within the environment; and

transmitting, via the wireless transceiver, the data indicative of the user selection of the restriction zone to the autonomous mobile robot for controlling a behavior of one or more sensors of the autonomous mobile robot in response to determining that the autonomous mobile robot is within the restriction zone, wherein controlling the behavior of the one or more sensors comprises retracting the one or more sensors into a body of the autonomous mobile robot in response to entering the restriction zone.

17. The user computing device of claim 16 , wherein the operations comprise superimposing a representation of a route of the autonomous mobile robot on the representation of the environment.

18. The user computing device of claim 17 , wherein the received data is indicative of a selected portion of the route.
