Systems are disclosed for navigating a marine vessel with a navigation system that displays a planned route including a set of current and future waypoints. The system has a display and an integrated user input control. A new desired current heading and new future waypoints with associated future headings are provided and a corresponding autopilot navigates accordingly.

A user interacts with an autonomous mobile device (AMD) using a voice user interface. The voice user interface allows a user to instruct the AMD to move, stop, go to a specified location, and so forth. The commands may include, but are not limited to: stop, stop moving, move, turn, go to, stay here, go away, and so forth. In one implementation, if the AMD is instructed by the user to go away, the AMD may move out of sight of the user from a first region to another region, such as another room. The AMD will avoid traversing the first region until a timer expires or a command to enter the first region is given.

The present disclosure can improve the vehicle control modes, allowing users to obtain better customer experience.

A method (100) of assisting a user of a robotic tool system (10) is disclosed. The robotic tool system (10) comprises a self-propelled robotic tool (1) configured to operate an area in an autonomous manner and a docking station (3) for charging one or more batteries (5) of the robotic tool (1). The method (100) comprises the steps of obtaining (110) inclination data representative of an inclination angle (a0, a1, a2) of the robotic tool (1) when the robotic tool (1) is located on or at the docking station (3) and outputting (120) a notification (n0, n1, n2) based on the inclination data. The present disclosure further relates to a robotic tool (1) and a robotic tool system (10) comprising a robotic tool (1) and a docking station (3).

A vehicle remote control device includes an operator state determination unit that determines whether or not a remote operator is in a proper control state suitable for performing remote control, based on a gaze state of the remote operator for a gaze target area of sensor information presented by an information presentation unit, a proper control determination unit that determines whether or not the remote control accepted by an input accepting unit is proper based on a result of the determination of the operator state determination unit, and a transmission unit that transmits remote control information indicating the remote control determined to be proper to an autonomous driving vehicle.

A remote starting system and method are provided for self-propelled work vehicles having work attachments supported from a main frame thereof. Cameras are arranged with respective fields of vision proximate to the work vehicle, and a communications unit is configured to exchange messages with a user device via a communications network. A local or remote controller is configured to receive first user input comprising a remote startup request for the work vehicle from the user device, and to automatically detect parameters respectively associated with predetermined remote startup conditions, at least one of the parameters comprising images obtained from the cameras. The images are transmitted to the user device, responsive to which second user input is received comprising remote startup confirmation from the user device via the communications network. Responsive to at least the second user input, engine startup is automatically controlled for the work vehicle.

A radio controlled model vehicle system, receiver, and method is provided. The model vehicle system, receiver, and method include a stability management system. The stability management system further includes a stability operating mode and a stability status indicator that indicates the stability operating mode. The stability operating mode is altered via a stability mode input device and indicated by a stability status indicator. Stability operating modes may include stability management on, stability management off, and stability management on braking, among others. The stability management system may be set on the model vehicle, the controller, or virtually using a portable, multi-function, electronic device.

An industrial vehicle remote operation system includes a forklift truck that includes a vehicle communication unit, a remote operation device that includes a remote communication unit performing wireless communication with the vehicle communication unit and is used for remotely operating the industrial vehicle, and a forced stop control unit configured to decelerate and forcibly stop traveling of the industrial vehicle while maintaining a steering angle of the industrial vehicle formed when a forced stop condition is met, in a case where the forced stop condition is met during a remote operation of traveling of the industrial vehicle using the remote operation device.

A robotic vehicle management system for the control, optimization and distribution of robotic vehicles is presented in which vehicle operational data is recorded and used to model and optimize a vehicle's travel path. A process for receiving data from multiple vehicles is disclosed, wherein the recorded data is used in the optimization of control systems with regards to travel path, fuel savings, safety, and other considerations.
