Zone control system for a robotic vehicle

This invention describes a system for guiding a robot vehicle, like a robotic lawnmower, within specific areas of a property. It uses a map and physical markers or GPS points to define different work zones. The robot then follows a schedule, moving between these zones and operating only when instructed for each specific area, with the schedule allowing for different durations and breaks between tasks.

Why it matters: Precise robotic localization and mapping were complex in 2015. Today, cheaper, more powerful sensors and AI-driven navigation make this system much more practical.
