An autonomous tilting three-wheeled vehicle comprises a pair of front wheels coupled to a tiltable chassis by a mechanical linkage, such that the pair of wheels and the chassis are configured to tilt in unison with respect to a roll axis of the chassis. An electronic controller of the autonomous vehicle controls a tilt actuator to selectively tilt the chassis. Optionally, a steering actuator is coupled to the front wheels and controlled by the electronic controller to selectively steer the wheels. A sensor configured to measure orientation-dependent information may be coupled to the chassis by a gimbal configured to compensate for vehicle tilt. In some examples, the autonomous vehicle comprises an autonomous delivery robot.

An apparatus and method for a mobile transport for delivering temperature-controlled contents includes a plurality of compartments coupled to a vehicle body where each compartment includes an interior space and a front panel defining a wall of the interior space. Each front panel is operable to open and reveal the interior space of its compartment in response to a predetermined condition. A temperature controller is configured to individually control a temperature setting within at least one of the plurality of compartments, and a germicidal controller is configured to provide a germicide to the interior space of each of the plurality of compartments. In operation, the mobile transport receives an order signal to pick up an item from a source, the order signal including the pickup location information, customer identification information, and delivery location information. After the item has been placed in the interior space of a compartment, the temperature controller sets the temperature setting for that compartment according to a type of the item. After arriving at the delivery location, the front panel of the compartment is opened in response to receiving an open request signal satisfying the predetermined condition, the open request signal including information relating to the customer identification information.

The present invention relates to a driverless transport system (81), comprising a plurality of driverless transport devices (10) having a support structure (12) with an outer contour (14); an undercarriage (16) which is secured to the support structure (12) and has at least one first wheel (18) and a second wheel (20), wherein the first wheel (18) is mounted in the undercarriage (16) so as to rotate about a first axis of rotation (D1) and the second wheel (20) is mounted in the undercarriage (16) so as to rotate about a second axis of rotation (D1); a drive unit (22) by means of which the first wheel (18) and the second wheel (20) can be driven independently of each other; a control unit (94) for controlling or regulating the driverless transport devices (10); and a communication device (76) by means of which information can be exchanged between the control unit (94) and the driverless transport devices (10), wherein one of the driverless transport devices (10) is designed as a master (86) and the other driverless transport devices (10) are designed as slaves (88).

A shelving system includes side members that each define a first channel having a slide disposed therein. A cross member extends between and connects the slides. The cross member defines a second channel having a guide member disposed therein. The guide member defines a third channel and a flange. A container includes side walls having a rail. One of the rails is movably disposed in the third channel. The rails include a first locking element and a second locking element. The handle includes a third locking element that engages the first locking element. The handle is movable between a first position in which the second locking element engages the flange and the container is fixed relative to the guide member and a second position in which the second locking element is spaced apart from the flange and the container can translate relative to the guide member.

An information processing device includes a controller. The controller is configured to generate, when information related to a request to use a cabin unit is acquired from a terminal of a first user who intends an activity in the cabin unit rather than traveling by the cabin unit, a command for causing a traveling unit to pick up the first user. The traveling unit is connected to and carrying a predetermined cabin unit associated with the activity of the first user. The controller is configured to generate, to the traveling unit connected to the predetermined cabin unit where a predetermined number of the first users or more is riding, a command for placing the predetermined cabin unit at a predetermined location.
