A method for controlling a robot includes: controlling a driving apparatus to move the robot to a preset route; detecting an obstacle on the preset route; determining an entrance angle and an entrance velocity with which a rollover index of the robot is maintained within a preset range during climbing the obstacle; and controlling the driving apparatus to climb the obstacle with the determined entrance angle and the determined entrance velocity.

An autonomous robot drive assembly includes a plurality of drive units. The plurality of drive units may allow for movement and control of the autonomous robot drive. Each of the plurality of drive units are configured to be oriented independent of the other drive units. Each drive unit may include a plurality of independently operable driven wheels. Each drive unit may further include a drive unit coupling, allowing for the drive unit to rotate independently of other portions of the autonomous robot. The drive unit coupling may not be driven and may be configured to freely rotate.

A mobile body controller according to the present disclosure includes circuitry configured to recognize an environment surrounding a mobile body to be controlled, and change parameters used for self-position estimation by the mobile body based on the recognized environment.

The technology relates to autonomous vehicles for transporting cargo and/or people between locations. Distributed sensor arrangements may not be suitable for vehicles such as large trucks, busses or construction vehicles. Side view mirror assemblies are provided that include a sensor suite of different types of sensors, including LIDAR, radar, cameras, etc. Each side assembly is rigidly secured to the vehicle by a mounting element. The sensors within the assembly may be aligned or arranged relative to a common axis or physical point of the housing. This enables self-referenced calibration of all sensors in the housing. Vehicle-level calibration can also be performed between the sensors on the left and right sides of the vehicle. Each side view mirror assembly may include a conduit that provides one or more of power, data and cooling to the sensors in the housing.

Disclosed embodiments generally relate to systems and methods for flight control of aircrafts. In some embodiments, a flight control system is configured to determine desired commands for the electric aircraft, determine at least one reference command for an effector based on the desired commands and one or more aircraft conditions, monitor energy states of the plurality of battery packs, where at least a first battery pack of the plurality of battery packs is electrically isolated from at least a second battery pack of the plurality of battery packs, adjust the at least one reference command based on the monitored energy states of the plurality of battery packs, generate control commands for the plurality of effectors based on the adjusted at least one effector reference command, and control the plurality of effectors according to the generated control commands to meet the one or more desired commands of the electric aircraft.
