A modular container such as a mobile refrigerator is configured to attach to a larger in-home refrigerator. The modular container has an attachment feature configured to selectively attach and detach from a first attachment feature of the larger refrigerator to enable the modular container to be selectively attached and detached from the interior compartment of the larger refrigerator. A door of the modular container is configured to selectively enclose an interior of the modular container. The modular container has its own dedicated refrigeration system mounted thereon, enabling the modular container to act as its own refrigerator once removed from the larger refrigerator.

Data from a radar sensor moving through a static environment may be smoothed and used to generate range profiles by approximating peaks. A direction of arrival (DOA) can then be determined based on the range profile in order to generate a reprojection map. The reprojection map is used to provide updates to a stored map in a robot.

A method of performing geometrical measurements of remote objects includes performing a laser sweep of a measurement object with a handheld sensor device including a distance measurement unit and an inertial measurement unit. The method includes activating the distance measurement unit to perform a plurality of distance measurements during the laser sweep, and activating the inertial measurement unit to perform an inertial measurement in association with each of the distance measurements. A processor is used to process the distance measurements with reference to the associated inertial measurements to determine a geometric characteristic of the measurement object.
