Abstract:
Various embodiments include methods, devices, and robotic vehicle processing devices implementing such methods for automatically adjusting the minimum distance that a robotic vehicle is permitted to approach an object by a collision avoidance system based upon a classification or type of object.

Claim (Index 30):
The non-transitory processor readable storage medium of  claim 28 , wherein the stored processor-executable instructions are configured to cause the processor of the robotic vehicle to perform operations such that:\n determining a classification of the object in the vicinity of the robotic vehicle comprises determining a classification for all objects posing an obstacle or potential obstacle to the robotic vehicle; adjusting a proximity threshold setting in the collision avoidance system based on the classification of the object in the vicinity of the robotic vehicle comprises generating a map of all objects posing an obstacle or potential obstacle to the robotic vehicle in which a proximity threshold corresponding to each object based on the object's classification is added as an exclusion perimeter around the object's volume; and controlling the robotic vehicle using the adjusted proximity threshold for collision avoidance comprises:\n determining a detour path that remains outside the exclusion perimeter of all detected obstacles; and \n controlling the robotic vehicle to execute the detour path.
