Abstract

A robot in accordance with at least some embodiments of the present technology includes a neck region through which the robot is configured to transmit and receive light. The robot defines a robot height and includes a body, a head carried by the body, and a neck extending between the head and the body along the robot height. The robot further includes a structural neck frame at a periphery of the neck in a plane perpendicular to the robot height. The structural neck frame defines windows distributed around the periphery of the neck. The robot further includes a sensor disposed at least partially within the structural neck frame. The sensor includes a laser configured to transmit light via the windows and a detector configured to receive light via the windows. A field of view of the sensor extends at least 320 degrees around the neck.
