Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques to undo a portion of a mission recording of a robot by physically moving the robot back through the mission recording in reverse. As a result, after the undo process is completed, the robot is positioned at an earlier point in the mission and the user can continue to record further mission data from that point. The portion of the mission recording that was performed in reverse can be omitted from subsequent performance of the mission, for example by deleting that portion from the mission recording or otherwise marking that portion as inactive. In this manner, the mistake in the initial mission recording is not retained, but the robot need not perform the entire mission recording again.
