Claim 0:
1. A method of disinfecting an interior space, comprising:
generating a map of the interior space using information collected by a sensor system comprising an autonomous, mobile, robotic (AMR) device, and determining from the collected sensor information an identity and location of one or more areas for disinfection;
using the map of the interior space, and the location of the one or more areas identified for disinfection, to determine a path for the AMR device to follow through the interior space in order to disinfect each of the one or more areas identified for disinfection, wherein the path comprises a plurality of nodes;
calculating a dosage of disinfectant to be applied by the AMR device to each of the one or more areas identified for disinfection along the path; and
controlling the AMR device to traverse the path while it applies the calculated dosage of disinfectant to each of the one or more areas, wherein a traversal speed corresponds to the disinfection dosage assigned to an edge, as a weight, that corresponds to the path between two adjacent nodes is determined, and wherein the weight comprises at least a speed of the AMR device and the dosage of disinfectant.
