Systems and methods for editing routes for robotic devices are disclosed herein. According to at least one non-limiting exemplary embodiment, Bezier curves and controls are provided to enable a user to intuitively manipulate a robot route, including changing the shape of the route, deleting segments of the route, and/or adding new route segments.

In implementations of systems for generating stroked paths, a computing device implements a stroked path system to receive input data describing a vector object having a filled path. The stroked path system generates a medial axis for the filled path by performing a medial axis transform on a boundary of the filled path. A stroke width is estimated based on distances between the medial axis and the boundary of the filled path that are normal to the medial axis. The stroked path system generates a stroked path for display in a user interface that is visually similar to the filled path based on the medial axis and the stroke width.

An example computing system is configured to extract gridline information from a two-dimensional drawing file and determine, for the gridline information, first coordinate information that is based on a first datum. The computing system converts the first coordinate information into second coordinate information that is based on a second datum, where the second coordinate information is used by a three-dimensional drawing file. The computing system is also configured to receive a request to generate a two-dimensional view of the three-dimensional drawing file, where the two-dimensional view includes an intersection of two meshes within the three-dimensional drawing file. The computing device generates the two-dimensional view of the three-dimensional drawing file and adds, to the generated two-dimensional view, (i) at least one gridline corresponding to the gridline information and (ii) dimensioning information involving the at least one gridline and at least one of the two meshes.

Systems and methods provide for efficiently and accurately determining a simplified path that conforms to the geometry of an original path by simultaneously minimizing the deviation from the original path and reducing the number of anchor points in the simplified path. A simplified path may be iteratively generated by updating parametric values and anchor points for candidate simplified paths at epochs. A deviation in distance between points on the original path and corresponding points on candidate paths may be iteratively decreased to ensure that the resulting simplified path follows the geometry of the original path to a predetermined threshold. Continuity constrains can also be applied to ensure smoothness of the simplified path.

Introduced here computer programs and associated computer-implemented techniques for generating measurements of physical structures and environments in an automated matter through analysis of data that is generated by one or more sensors included in a computing device. This can be accomplished by combining insights that are derived through analysis different types of data that are generated, computed, or otherwise obtained by a computing device. For instance, a computer program may enable or facilitate measurement of arbitrary dimensions, angles, and square footage of a physical structure based on (i) images generated by an image sensor included in the corresponding computing device and (ii) measurements generated by an inertial sensor included in the corresponding computing device.
