Abstract
A robotic vehicle comprising a chassis and a manipulatable payload engagement portion, at least one sensor configured to acquire real-time sensor data, a pose validation system comprising computer program code executable by at least one processor to evaluate the sensor data to: determine if a goal pose of the robotic vehicle will result in a collision with infrastructure upon which the object is located when the engagement portion engages the object. If a potential collision is detected, the pose validation system can generate a signal to adjust the robotic vehicle's pose to avoid the collision. A corresponding method is also provided.
