Abstract:
A method for tracking movement and turning angle of a mobile robotic device using two optoelectronic sensors positioned on the underside thereof. Digital image correlation is used to analyze images captured by the optoelectronic sensors and determine the amount of offset, and thereby amount of movement of the device. Trigonometric analysis of a triangle formed by lines between the positions of the optoelectronic sensors at different intervals may be used to determine turning angle of the mobile robotic device.

Claim (Index 9):
A method for tracking velocity of a robotic device comprising:\n Capturing a plurality of images of a driving surface by each of at least two optoelectronic sensors of the robotic device moving within an environment; Obtaining with one or more processors of the robotic device, the plurality of images by each of the at least two optoelectronic sensors; and Determining, with the one or more processors of the robotic device, based on images captured by each of the at least two optoelectronic sensors, linear movement of each of the at least two optoelectronic sensors.
