What Is Robot Navigation?
Robot navigation is the process a robot uses to determine where it is and guide its movement through an environment.
How Navigation Differs From a Path
A path is a proposed route. Navigation also involves using available information to estimate position and direction, follow that route, and respond when conditions change. Different robots use different sensors and control methods.
Aiper Product Context
Aiper describes WavePath navigation on the Scuba S1 Pro and mapping-based navigation on the Scuba X1 Pro Max. The diagram explains the general concept; it does not disclose either product’s software architecture.
Common Misunderstanding
Navigation does not automatically mean a robot creates a detailed map, uses GPS underwater, or reaches every pool surface. Check the capabilities of the specific model.
