A method and system are provided for characterizing a vehicle motion of an autonomous mobile robot in response to a triggering event. The method and system involve an autonomous mobile robot and a vehicle processor operable to navigate the autonomous mobile robot. The system further includes a motion characterization system coupled to the autonomous mobile robot, the motion characterization system comprising an odometry system operable to collect vehicle motion data associated with the vehicle motion; a triggering component; a storage component for storing an event start time, an event end time and the vehicle motion data between the event start time and the event end time; and a motion characterization processor operable to: receive an initialization input to initiate the triggering event; generate a trigger signal to cause the triggering component to cause the triggering event; and identify the event start time and an event end time.
