1. A method comprising:

  • identifying, by a control system, an object from a plurality of objects within an environment of a robotic manipulator;

    causing, by the control system, the robotic manipulator to move the identified object to a different location within the environment;

    after the robotic manipulator moves the identified object to the different location, causing, by the control system, the robotic manipulator to perform a scan of an area of the environment vacated by the identified object by causing the robotic manipulator to change position while receiving sensor data from one or more sensors on the robotic manipulator, wherein the sensor data is indicative of at least one other object previously obscured by the identified object;

    identifying, by the control system, based on the sensor data, a second object from the plurality of objects within the environment; and

    causing, by the control system, the robotic manipulator to move the second object.
