When a bot gets completely lost and has a mission distance that exceeds a certain threshold the bot should stop, flash a new colour and indicate on the ipad that the bot is lost (cannot localize).
Problem/opportunity trying to be solved
When a bot gets completely lost there is currently nothing which determines that that bot is lost until it starts to spin at a single point |

Quantify the problem/opportunity
DHL Greven within the last 30 mins 4 bots have got lost due to the amount of traffic at the site. |

What is the root cause of the problem/opportunity
There is a limited number of LP's on the site due to the size of the bay support beams and the traffic from other functions on site is very high. |

Instances where we do this today. Challenging to do this while a bot is moving. May strand robots which would have found a resolution if left alone.
Improvements in process to reduce instances of robots getting lost.
