This invention describes a system that creates a map of its environment, identifying obstacles. It uses visual information to detect people and analyze their body posture. If a person is standing or moving, the system considers them a temporary object and removes them from the map, but if they are sitting or lying down, it includes them in the map as a permanent fixture.
Why it matters: Real-time pose estimation and computer vision models have become significantly more robust and accessible since 2021, simplifying the core posture detection and mapping.
