1. An autonomous mobile device (AMD) comprising:
one or more sensors that acquire data about a physical space;
one or more non-transitory memories storing computer-executable instructions; and
one or more processors to execute the computer-executable instructions to:
determine first data using the one or more sensors at a first time;
determine, based on the first data: (i) a first identifier (ID) associated with a first user represented in the first data, and (ii) a first location, with respect to the physical space, of the first user;
determine second data using the one or more sensors at a second time;
determine, based at least on the second data: (iii) a second ID associated with a second user represented in the second data, and (iv) a second location, with respect to the physical space, of the second user;
determine, based at least on the first data and the second data, that the first ID is associated with the second ID; and
operate the AMD based on the first ID being associated with the second ID.
