1. A system comprising:

  • a plurality of robots programmed to move within a physical area according to scheduled routes, a scheduled route identifying a path that a robot in the plurality of robots is scheduled to traverse within the physical area, wherein the physical area includes a set of sectors; and

    a computing system programmed to use the scheduled routes of the robots to generate, based at least in part on a number of times a path for a robot enters respective sectors included in the set of sectors, a traffic density map for the physical area, and to transmit the traffic density map to a user device to assist a human subject in navigating the physical area so as to reduce disruption to robot movement.
