Vehicle altitude restrictions and control
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes a vehicle body, one or more propulsion units coupled to the vehicle body and configured to effect movement of the UAV, and one or more processors coupled to the one or more propulsion units and individually or collectively configured to receive one or more sets of altitude restrictions for the UAV, receive location information indicating a current location of the UAV, determine a priority of the one or more sets of altitude restrictions by which the UAV abides based on the location information, select a set from the one or more sets of altitude restrictions based on the determined priority, and generate control signals to control the one or more propulsion units such that the UAV is operated in compliance with the selected set of altitude restrictions.
Vehicle and control method thereof
A vehicle that can adaptively adjust a sensing distance of an ultrasonic sensor according to operation of the vehicle includes: a steering device for steering a wheel; a power device for transmitting power to the wheel; a braking device for braking the wheel; an ultrasonic sensor for detecting an external object; an input device for receiving an input from a user; a transceiver for communicating with a user terminal; and a controller for adjusting a sensing distance of the ultrasonic sensor based on whether a user input for automatic parking is received through the input device or the transceiver and controlling at least one of the steering device, the power device, or the braking device based on an output of the ultrasonic sensor and the user input.
Vehicle control system
A vehicle control system includes: an outside-of-vehicle operation device configured to cause a vehicle to travel operated by an operator from outside of the vehicle, inside of a compartment of the vehicle being isolated from the outside of the vehicle by a vehicle body; an assist instruction device configured to cause the operator to select a travel mode in which the vehicle is allowed to travel by an operation of the outside-of-vehicle operation device; a parking brake operation detector configured to detect an operation of a parking brake; and a warning device configured to issue warning in a compartment to stimulate sense of hearing or sense of sight at the time the travel mode is selected and the operation of the parking brake is detected.
Remote Control System for Construction Equipment
The present disclosure relates to a remote control system for construction equipment, which includes a work apparatus operated according to operation information of a real joystick, that allows construction equipment to be remotely controlled using a mobile device, the remote control system including: a receiver, a virtual joystick interface, a haptic interface, and a transmitter.
Equipment visual status indicator system and method
A lift device having an implement, a prime mover configured to drive the implement, and a connectivity module communicably coupled with the lift device. The connectivity module is configured to receive an input relating to a status of the lift device, and provide an indication representing the status of the lift device.
User interface for remote vehicle monitoring
Techniques for providing a user interface for remote vehicle monitoring and/or control include presenting a digital representation of an environment and a vehicle as it traverses the environment on a first portion of a display and presenting on a second portion of the display a communication interface that is configured to provide communication with multiple people. The communication interface may enable communications between a remote operator and any number of occupants of the vehicle, other operators (e.g., other remote operators or in-vehicle operators), and/or people in an environment around the vehicle. The user interface may additionally include controls to adjust components of the vehicle, and the controls may be presented on a third portion of the display. Furthermore, the user interface may include a vehicle status interface that provides information associated with a current state of the vehicle.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INTERCEPTION AND COUNTERING UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES (UAVS)
Systems, devices, and methods for identifying a target aerial vehicle, deploying an interceptor aerial vehicle comprising at least one effector, maneuvering the interceptor aerial vehicle to a position to engage a target aerial vehicle, deploying the at least one effector to intercept the target aerial vehicle, and confirming that the target aerial vehicle has been intercepted.
CONTROL METHOD, CONTROL DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Provided is a control method for controlling a movable body by a remote operation performed by a remote operator. The control method includes: receiving information including an operation amount by the remote operator via communication; calculating a corrected operation amount by applying at least either one of linear interpolation and lowpass filtering to the received operation amount; and controlling the movable body based on the corrected operation amount. The control method further includes setting a period for the linear interpolation to be longer and decreasing a cut-off frequency in the lowpass filtering as a communication period for the operation amount is longer, or setting the period for the linear interpolation to be longer or decreasing the cut-off frequency in the lowpass filtering as the communication period for the operation amount is longer.
Intervention in operation of a vehicle having autonomous driving capabilities
Among other things, a determination is made that intervention in an operation of one or more autonomous driving capabilities of a vehicle is appropriate. Based on the determination, a person is enabled to provide information for an intervention. The intervention is caused in the operation of the one or more autonomous driving capabilities of the vehicle.
VEHICLE ALTITUDE RESTRICTIONS AND CONTROL
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes a vehicle body, one or more propulsion units coupled to the vehicle body and configured to effect movement of the UAV, and one or more processors coupled to the one or more propulsion units and individually or collectively configured to receive one or more sets of altitude restrictions for the UAV, receive location information indicating a current location of the UAV, determine a priority of the one or more sets of altitude restrictions by which the UAV abides based on the location information, select a set from the one or more sets of altitude restrictions based on the determined priority, and generate control signals to control the one or more propulsion units such that the UAV is operated in compliance with the selected set of altitude restrictions.
