We present a tried and tested methodology for simulating the behaviour of robots within the built environment. 3D scans are taken, converted into CAD like models and used within an emulated environment with real robot models. The simulations show movement behaviours, sight capabilities and uncover limitations that robots will undergo within specific environments. Using this method we are able to produce a largely scalable, time efficient way of understanding both robot ability with a built environment and indications of how a co-habitation with a human resident will take place. We produce some limitations of the methodology as well as its efficacy to replace a manual method of installing robots within real physical environments (something that is not only time consuming but also cost or facility prohibitive).
