Abstract: A robot, specifically a cobot, with a mobile base includes a memory, sensors, a communications device, a processor, and a codrone. An unvarying map of the space in which the cobot is likely to move is saved in the memory. The sensors on board the cobot are configured to inform the cobot about its concentric environment. Information are issued and received via the communications device. The processor process the information received from the sensors and the communication device. The codrone, separate from the cobot, is used to explore the environment. The codrone is configured to move in the space on its own and communicates information to the cobot via the communication device. A robotic system having a plurality of cobots and a method for updating working maps of the cobots of the robotic system are also disclosed.
