Abstract: An example method may include receiving, from a sensor on a vehicle, an initial plurality of sensor data points representing a position of a face of a pallet. The vehicle may include tines configured to engage the pallet. A baseline geometric representation of the face of the pallet may be determined based on the initial plurality of sensor data points. The vehicle may be caused to reposition the tines relative to the pallet. A subsequent plurality of sensor data points representing the position of the face of the pallet after repositioning the tines may be received from the sensor. An updated geometric representation of the face of the pallet may be determined based on the subsequent sensor data points. It may be determined that the updated geometric representation deviates from the baseline geometric representation by more than a threshold value and, in response, motion of the vehicle may be adjusted.
