Information Technology Asset Type Identification Using a Mobile Vision-Enabled Robot

Mechanisms are provided for classifying an obstacle as an asset type. The mechanisms receive a digital image of an obstacle from an image capture device of an automated robot. The mechanisms perform a classification operation on the digital image of the obstacle to identify a proposed asset type classification for the obstacle. The mechanisms determine a final asset type for the obstacle based on the proposed asset type classification for the obstacle. The mechanisms update a map data structure for a physical premises in which the obstacle is present based on the final asset type.
