Abstract
One or more embodiments herein can enable identification of an obstacle free area about an object. An exemplary system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components, and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components can comprise an obtaining component that obtains raw data defining a physical state of an environment around an object from a vantage of the object, and a generation component that, based on the raw data, generates a dimension of a portion or more of a virtual polygon representing a boundary about the object, wherein the boundary bounds free space about the object. A sensing sub-system can comprise both an ultrasonic sensor and a camera that can separately sense the environment about the object from the vantage of the object to thereby generate separate polygon measurement sets.
