Abstract

In recent years, mobile robots have increasingly been deployed in diverse and unstructured environments, the-loop layer, a semi-online layer generating dynamic virtual barriers, and an offline layer leveraging 43 semantic information from building digital twins. This architecture allows the robot to adapt to temporary 44 hazards, user-defined constraints, and human presence while reducing reliance on complex real-time
