Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for automated force feedback detection for autonomous robots transporting containers. In one embodiment, an example mobile robot is configured to transport a container. The mobile robot can include a first sensor, a second sensor, a motor, and a controller. The controller may be configured to determine that the container is loaded, determine, using at least one of the first sensor and the second sensor, that a first change in load distribution along a first axis satisfies a threshold, determine that the first change in load distribution has persisted for a first length of time, and cause the motor to be disabled.
