Robotic social interaction

This invention describes a robot that can move around on its own. It uses its sensors to detect people nearby and figures out where they might be headed. If a person's predicted path would cross the robot's current route, the robot adjusts its own path to prevent a collision. The robot specifically builds a 3D map of its surroundings, including stationary objects, to help it navigate and avoid both people and fixed obstacles.

Why it matters: Since 2021, advancements in AI for real-time object detection and predictive modeling have made dynamic human trajectory prediction more robust. Improved 3D mapping and path planning algorithms can now handle complex environments and moving obstacles more efficiently.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedSoftware logic, sensor integration, 3D mapping, path planning
