Making activitybot remember where objects are to avoid them roomba style

This should be achievable, but I can’t find any posts discussing how to map out the room layout, save it and automatically avoid those objects in the future. Any links or ideas? Also would be super great to be able to map where an object is that is supposed to avoid with another response letting the bot maybe dance or something near an object that it “knows” what it is.

    Two basic methods come to mind. First is to create a bit map of the room, so a 12 x 10 room would need 120 bits, assuming a bit represents an object in one square foot of the room. The other would be to store the location and dimensions of each object.
