Abstract: A method, system, and one or more computer-readable storage media for controlling a robot in the presence of a moving object are provided herein. The method includes capturing a number of frames from a three-dimensional camera system and analyzing a frame to identify a connected object. The frame is compared to a previous frame to identify a moving connected object (MCO). If an unexpected MCO is in the frame a determination is made if the unexpected MCO is in an actionable region. If so, the robot is instructed to take an action.

Abstract: A system and method for ground truth estimation of an autonomous navigation system is described. The method includes calibrating a ground truth estimation system for the navigator, by determining a calibration pose of the navigator as disposed in relation to each of a plurality of landmarks during a calibration period. The method also includes directing the navigator to travel to a sequence of waypoints, the waypoints including a selected sequence of the landmarks. The method further includes determining the ground truth estimation based on an accuracy pose of the navigator as disposed in relation to the sequence of landmarks, and the calibration poses for the sequence of landmarks.
