Abstract
In an implementation of a method of operation of a robot fleet management system, the robot fleet management system accesses a set of tasks available to be performed by a fleet of robots, accesses a respective power consumption for each task from the set of tasks, and accesses a respective power state of each robot in the fleet. The robot fleet management system allocates a selected robot to a selected task, based at least in part on the power state of at least the selected robot and the power consumption for at least the selected task. The power consumption is determined by the robot fleet management system and/or be provided by the task provider. The set of tasks includes tethered and untethered tasks. The robot fleet management system allocates the selected robot to an untethered task after determining the selected robot has sufficient power to complete the untethered task.
