Abstract
A method includes detecting an object in a real environment of a robot. The method further includes inferring an expected property of the object based upon a representation of the object within a representation of the real environment of the robot. The method also includes sensing, via a sensor of the robot, a presently-detected property of the object in the real environment corresponding to the expected property. The method still further includes detecting a conflict between the expected property of the object and the presently-detected property of the object.
