US Patent 9829333 Robotic traffic density based guidance

Features are disclosed for providing guidance regarding robotic traffic density to humans working in the same physical area as robots. Through analysis of the planned and/or historical routes of the robotic traffic, traffic densities can be identified for the physical area. The densities may be used to generate a heat map or other visual display for presentation to human workers. This allows the workers to move through the physical area with a better understanding of where robot traffic is dense and how to best avoid interrupting those assets.
