Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for autonomous navigation inside trailers. In one embodiment, an example autonomous robot may include a front end, a rear end, a sensor disposed at the front end, a rear-facing camera disposed at the rear end, and a force sensor configured to detect lateral and longitudinal forces exerted on a container being transported by the autonomous robot. The autonomous robot may be configured to transport the container from a facility into a trailer, where the autonomous robot is configured to navigate inside the trailer using the rear-facing camera.
