Fig 1. CS-robot detecting social distancing breaches.

Our robot detecting non-compliance to social distancing norms, classifying non-compliant pedestrians into groups and autonomously navigating to the static group with the most people in it (a group with 3 people in this scenario). The robot encourages the non-compliant pedestrians to move apart and maintain at least 2 meters of social distance by displaying a message on the mounted screen. Our CS-robot also captures thermal images of the scene and transmits them to appropriate security/healthcare personnel.
