Motion heat map
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by one or more computing devices, an input indicative of an environment in which a robotic device resides, and wherein the robotic device is configured to function within the environment;
receiving information associated with the robotic device, wherein the information includes operational characteristics of the robotic device and a range of motion associated with a component of the robotic device;
determining a motion per path metric associated with the component of the robotic device based on a simulated operation of the robotic device moving the component along a given path within the range of motion for the component;
determining a force associated with the motion per path metric according to the simulated operation;
based on the force, determining, by the one or more computing devices, a heat map to demonstrate a varying effect of motion of the component along the given path, wherein regions of the heat map vary in one or more of color and luminous intensity according to the force, and wherein one or more regions of the heat map have a decreased luminous intensity based on an increasing distance from the given path associated with the component; and
providing for display, the heat map overlaid onto a representation of a geometric layout of the environment, wherein the heat map comprises a graphical image.
