Control device, control method, and microscope device for operation
To make it possible to improve user convenience, provided is a control device including: a control unit configured to control a position and an attitude of a microscope unit by driving an arm unit that supports the microscope unit on the basis of a captured image of an operating site photographed by the microscope unit during an operation so that a position and attitude condition set before the operation is satisfied. The position and attitude condition is a condition that prescribes a position and an attitude of the microscope unit with respect to the operating site to obtain a desired captured image corresponding to the position and attitude condition.

Dynamically arming a safety mechanism on a delivery drone
A system and method for dynamically operating a drone safety system of a delivery drone. The method includes: receiving at least one terrain map; receiving a delivery request, wherein the delivery request includes a destination location and a delivery time; analyzing the received at least one terrain map and the delivery request to generate a navigation plan, wherein the navigation plan include a plurality of segments, wherein each of the plurality of segments include at least source coordinates, destination coordinates, an operation instruction to operate a drone safety system in case of failure of a delivery drone; and sending the navigation plan to the delivery drone for execution of the navigation plan at least in case of failure of the delivery drone.
Gimbal control
A method for controlling a gimbal includes obtaining a current angle of view of a photographing device provided on the gimbal, determining, according to the current angle of view, an adjustment strategy for adjusting the gimbal that allows the photographing device to output stable images, and adjusting at least one of an acceleration or a sensitivity of the gimbal according to the adjustment strategy.

Position control device and position control method
In a case of performing operations including alignment and insertion regarding two objects, a path setting unit 806 and an actor unit 804 are provided to learn a control amount. The path setting unit 806 provides the amount of movement for removing an object from its inserted position, and for locating it on and around the path of removing. The actor unit 804 obtains positions of the object and the values of a force sensor 801 there to perform learning by letting the positions of the object be the values for the output layer and letting the values of the force sensor 801 be the values for the input layer. Therefore, learning data can be collected efficiently.
Self-charging unmanned vehicle
Unmanned vehicles can be terrestrial, aerial, nautical, or multi-mode. Unmanned vehicles may efficiently accomplish tasks by autonomously charging or replacing its power source.
Tire management system and tire management method
A tire management system assigns work to each of a plurality of vehicles and manages a loaded state of a tire mounted on each of the vehicles that perform the assigned work. The tire management system includes: an overload vehicle detection unit configured to detect an overloaded vehicle in which a tire load of the work assigned to each of the vehicles exceeds a predetermined tire load set in the tire itself of the vehicle; and a work contents changing processing unit configured to perform, when the overloaded vehicle is detected, processing of changing work contents of the overloaded vehicle such that the tire load of the overloaded vehicle becomes equal to or less than the predetermined tire load.
