  • Publication number: 20120101679
    Abstract: A mechanism for optimizing behavior of an autonomous mobile robotic device. A first set of robotic behaviors is created based on a set of work area parameters and a behavior selection. The autonomous mobile robotic device is controlled using the first set of robotic behaviors. Performance data indicative of a performance of the autonomous mobile robotic device when controlled by the first set of robotic behaviors is collected. The performance data is analyzed to create a second set of robotic behaviors having enhanced performance relative to the first set of robotic behaviors. The first set of robotic behaviors is replaced with the second set of robotic behaviors to control the autonomous mobile robotic device using the second set of robotic behaviors.
