Due to physical obstacles in the robot area and the size and maneuverability of
the robots, there are limitations on where the robots can go and how they can
get there.
Due to obstacles in the area and the size and maneuverability of the robots,
there are limitations on where the robots can go and how they can get there.
For example, the "tail" of the robot sticks out further from the center axis of
the wheels than its "head", so there needs to be a fair amount of clearance for
the robot to be able to pivot correctly. Therefore, we enforce a 0.25 meter
exclusion zone around obstacles to ensure the robots can maneuver freely.
These exclusion zones can be seen on the
