Abstract:
Provided is a process that includes: obtaining a first version of a map of a workspace; selecting a first undiscovered area of the workspace; in response to selecting the first undiscovered area, causing the robot to move to a position and orientation to sense data in at least part of the first undiscovered area; and obtaining an updated version of the map mapping a larger area of the workspace than the first version.

Claim (Index 15):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the operations comprise:\n determining a first shape of the sensed area based on a first location of the robot and based on a first location of an obstacle sensed by the one or more sensors that block line-of-sight from the one or more sensors; determining a second shape of the sensed area based on a second location of the robot and based on a second location of the obstacle; the first shape is different from the second shape; and updating which areas of the working area have been mapped in the second version of the map based on both the first shape of the sensed area and the second shape of the sensed area.
