Systems and methods are provided herein for coordinating motion between components of an inventory system. A first set of instructions associated with a first task to be performed by a first robotic device may be received. A second set of instructions associated with a second task to be performed by a second robotic device may be received. The first and second robotic devices may be configured to utilize corresponding operational areas that may overlap to define an area of overlap. Light information representative of the spatial condition of at least one of the robotic devices may be projected onto a projection surface. The light information may be utilized to determine that at least one of the first and second robotic devices is utilizing the area of overlap. A remedial action may be performed to coordinate motion of the first and second robotic devices within the area of overlap.
