G05D1/0011
Cart robot with automatic following function
A basket assembly for receiving goods therein; a main body coupled to a bottom of the basket assembly to support the basket assembly; a handle assembly installed on one side of the main body; a wheel assembly rotatably coupled to a bottom of the main body to move the main body in a direction in which a force is applied to the handle assembly; and a battery installed inside the main body for supplying electrical energy to the wheel assembly.
Remote driving service processing device
A remote driving service processing device includes: a general user terminal by which a requester applies for a remote driving service for moving a vehicle to a destination; a remote control terminal by which a remote driver remotely control the vehicle and sends a remote driving service termination permission request for terminating the remote driving service when the vehicle is having difficulty reaching the destination; and a server that sends a termination approval to the remote control terminal and terminates the remote driving service when (i) transferring the remote driving service termination permission request received from the remote control terminal to the general user terminal, and (ii) receiving a remote driving service termination consent, which is a response to the remote driving service termination permission request, from the general user terminal.
Work system, work machine, and control method
A work system includes an operation device that transmits an operation signal, a work machine that operates on the basis of the operation signal, and a transport vehicle that outputs a traveling control signal in a case where a fault in communication between the operation device and the work machine occurs.
Driving control device for remote controlled helicopter
A driving control device for a remote controlled helicopter includes an rpm detection unit that detects an rpm of a main rotor, a gyro sensor that detects angular velocities of control axes including roll, pitch and yaw axes, and a control unit that generates a control signal of a control actuator for controlling movements of the control axes based on the angular velocities detected by the gyro sensor and a steering signal sent from a transmitter. The control unit has information on the gyro sensitivities of the control axes and information on a set rpm of the main rotor which are preset for each of the flight states of the remote controlled helicopter, and corrects the gyro sensitivities based on a difference between the set rpm corresponding to a selected flight state among the flight states and an rpm of the main rotor detected by the rpm detection unit.
Active safety control system
Systems and methods are disclosed for determining, and displaying, the regulatory compliance status of a motorized vehicle, a driver of a motorized vehicle, or a non-vehicle machine. An authorized agent, such as a law enforcement officer, can perform a remotely-initiated safe stop of a motorized vehicle to prevent a high-speed chase. A system management center can receive, store, and transmit regulatory compliance records indicating the regulatory compliance status of drivers, motorized vehicles, and non-vehicle machines. A motorized vehicle can detect, and report, a driver “tail-gating” the motorized vehicle. The regulatory compliance history of drivers, motorized vehicles, and non-vehicle machines can be queried by authorized users.
Method for providing an assistance signal and/or a control signal for an at least partially automated vehicle
A method for providing an assistance signal and/or a control signal for an at least partially automated vehicle includes receiving surroundings data, in particular an acoustic signal; recognizing a warning signal emitted by a further road user based on the received surroundings data; determining whether a hazardous situation relating to the vehicle is or was indicated by the warning signal; and providing the assistance signal and/or the control signal based on the result of the determination.
Trajectory planning for a commercial vehicle
A method for trajectory planning for a commercial vehicle at a traffic junction, in particular including a traffic circle, by a control unit is provided. Trafficability of a lane of the commercial vehicle within a lane width of the traffic junction is checked prior to traveling into the traffic junction, traveling through a center of the traffic junction via an alternative trajectory is checked when normal negotiating of the traffic junction is not possible, and detection and/or prediction of surrounding traffic and trajectory planning of the alternative trajectory are carried out, taking the detected and/or predicted surrounding traffic into account. Moreover, a control unit, a computer program, and a machine-readable memory medium are provided.
Driving operation handover system and vehicle
A driving operation handover system includes a memory and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: acquire a first characteristic value of preset setting characteristics during travel of a vehicle equipped with a manual operation unit that an occupant operates; acquire a second characteristic value of the preset setting characteristics during travel of a virtual vehicle that simulates the vehicle, which a remote operator operates using a remote operation unit; calculate a difference value between the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value; in a case in which the difference value is lower than a setting threshold value, notify the occupant and the remote operator that operation of the vehicle can be handed over; and after notification, switch operation of the vehicle from one of the remote operator or the occupant to another of the remote operator or the occupant.
Lighter-than-air drone
A lighter-than-air toy drone having at least one balloon that is inflated with a lift gas. The drone has a first conduit progresses along a first axis and a second conduit that progresses along a perpendicular second axis. At least one motorized propeller is provided that can selectively moving air through the first conduit and the second conduit to propel the drone. The motorized propeller can also generate a gyroscopic force that acts to rotate said at least one balloon for directional steering.
AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE TRAVEL
The present disclosure relates to an autonomous vehicle and a method for traveling thereof. A travel situation is determined based on vehicle surroundings information during autonomous driving, a space around the vehicle is classified into a first space, a second space, and a third space based on the vehicle surroundings information, a travel route is created using at least one of the first space, the second space, and/or the third space based on the travel situation, and vehicle travel control is performed along the travel route.
