Disclosed are a method and system for generating a virtual boundary of a working region of a self-moving robot, and a self-moving robot and a readable storage medium. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring several recording points of a mobile positioning module circling along a patrol path; storing recording points corresponding to the first circle walked in a first storage linked list, and storing the remaining recording points in a second storage linked list; successively retrieving each recording point in the first storage linked list and taking the recording point as a basic coordinate point, and querying the second storage linked list to successively select m recording point groups corresponding to each basic coordinate point; according to each basic coordinate point and the m recording point groups corresponding thereto, respectively acquiring a boundary fitting point corresponding to the basic coordinate point, and forming a boundary fitting point sequence; acquiring boundary points according to the boundary fitting point sequence; and successively connecting the boundary points to generate a virtual boundary of a working region. In the present disclosure, a virtual boundary is generated according to recording points corresponding to a patrol path, such that human labor costs are reduced, and the working efficiency is improved.

An automatic travel system includes a prohibition boundary line setter to set a prohibition boundary line beyond which the vehicle is prohibited from entering, a turning circle setter to set a virtual turning circle as a target route for entry turning travel to enter a subsequent travel route, a transition turning travel controller to control tangent following travel using a vehicle body reference point that is calculated during travel to the virtual turning circle as a target orientation, and the entry turning travel using the virtual turning circle as a turning target route, an interference boundary line detector to detect the prohibition boundary line that is present in a moving direction of the vehicle in the tangent following travel, as an interference boundary line, and an interference avoidance travel controller to control travel for avoiding interference with the interference boundary line.

A method for determining information on an expected trajectory of an object comprises: determining input data being related to the expected trajectory of the object; determining first intermediate data based on the input data using a machine-learning method; determining second intermediate data based on the input data using a model-based method; and determining the information on the expected trajectory of the object based on the first intermediate data and based on the second intermediate data.

A control device for a work vehicle configured or programmed to travel autonomously includes a vehicle position calculator to calculate a vehicle position, a travel direction calculator to calculate a travel direction that is a front-back direction of the vehicle body, a steering state detector to obtain data on a steering state, a vehicle position estimator to calculate an estimated vehicle position at which the work vehicle is to be present after performing predetermined travel from the vehicle position of the work vehicle, a deviation calculator to calculate a deviation of the work vehicle at the estimated vehicle position from the target travel path, a target steering amount calculator to calculate a target steering amount based on the deviation, and an autonomous travel controller to control steering based on the target steering amount.

Agricultural machines utilize global positioning systems (GPS) to acquire the location of the machine as well as the location of an event, which may be based upon an operation of the agricultural machine. Because of the possibility of outage and/or inaccuracy of the GPS, a GPS augmentation system can be included with the agricultural machine. The GPS augmentation system can supplement the location determination of the GPS, or can be used in place of the GPS when the GPS is not available. An unmanned vehicle can also be used as part of the augmentation system to provide additional information for the location of the agricultural machine and/or the event.

A method of operating a mobile cleaning robot in an environment can include detecting, such as using an optical stream from the mobile cleaning robot, a seasonal object located in the environment. A seasonal cleaning zone can be created based on the detected seasonal object when a current date is within a specified date range. The seasonal cleaning zone can be displayed on a map of the environment.

An autonomous cleaning robot includes a controller configured to execute instructions to perform operations including moving the autonomous cleaning robot along a first portion of a path toward a waypoint, detecting, with a ranging sensor of the autonomous cleaning robot, an obstacle along the path between the first portion of the path and a second portion of the path, navigating the autonomous cleaning robot about the obstacle along a trajectory that maintains at least a clearance distance between the autonomous cleaning robot and the obstacle, and moving the autonomous cleaning robot along the second portion of the path.

An autonomous, mobile robotic device (AMR) is configured with one or more UVC radiation sources, and operates to traverse a path while disinfecting an interior space. Each UVC radiation source is connected to the AMR by an articulating arm that is controlled to orient each source towards a feature or surface that is selected for disinfection during the time that the AMR is moving through the space. The location of each feature selected for disinfection can be mapped, and this map information, a current AMR location and pose can be used to generate signals that are used to control the articulating arm to orient each UVC lamp towards a feature that is selected for disinfection.
