Intent communication for automated guided vehicles

The present disclosure is directed toward, a method that includes receiving a travel path for a robot in a facility, selecting one or more target projectors disposed along the travel path, and displaying, by the one or more target projectors, one or more visual markers along the travel path of the robot to communicate an intended movement of the robot. The one or more target projectors are selected from among a plurality of projectors disposed in the facility.

Emergency Vehicle Safety Bar with Deployable Swing Arm
20210053484 · 2021-02-25 ·

Traffic-warning safety bars are provided for emergency or work vehicles to warn oncoming traffic of the presence of emergency or work personnel on or near roadways. One embodiment features an upright elongated support base co-operable with one or move vehicle mounts for height adjustable support of a vertically swinging arm on an upright surface of the vehicle, for example at a gap space or transition found between the driver cabin and rear working section of many emergency vehicles (wreckers, ambulances, fire engines, etc.). In a collapsed position, the swing arm hangs downwardly beside the support base with zero or minimal protrusion from the side of the vehicle. Another embodiment features a roof-mounted support base on which the swing arm is pivotal in a horizontal plane between a stowed position residing entirety within the perimeter boundaries of the vehicle roof, and a deployed position spanning laterally outward therefrom.

HANDCART

A handcart may include a drive wheel; a prime mover configured to rotate the drive wheel; a grip portion configured to be gripped by a user; and a visibly noticeable portion that is clearly noticeable from behind the user when the user stands behind the handcart, gripping the grip portion.

An auxiliary light system for a tractor for illuminating an area in front of a loader of the tractor. The auxiliary light system can include a pair of light assemblies mounted on respective loader brackets connecting the loader to a main body of the tractor. The light assemblies can be controlled from an operator station of the tractor to move lights on the light assemblies between stowed and operational positions. The light assemblies can be installed as original equipment on the tractor or applied to the tractor as after-market equipment. Associated methods are also disclosed.

Portable light tower

A portable apparatus for mounting lights is described. The portable apparatus may include an attachment frame configured to removably mount to and be supported by a 3-point hitch connection of a tractor, a generally vertical main post having an upper end and a lower end, where a lower portion of the main post is rigidly coupled to the attachment frame, and where a height of the main post is vertically adjustable, and a generally horizontal mounting beam rigidly coupled to the upper end of the main post at a center portion of the beam, where a left length of the mounting beam and a right length of the mounting beam are independently adjustable, and where the mounting beam includes a plurality of vertical light mounting bars, where each light mounting bar is coupled to the mounting beam.

A light system a base that is configured to connect to a vehicle; a light layer that is movable into the base in a closed configuration and out of the base in an open configuration; and a cap located above the base and the light layer, the cap enclosing the light layer within the base when the light system is in the closed configuration.

Apparatus, Systems And Methods For Automated Navigation Of Agricultural Equipment

The disclosure relates to the system and methods for generating a guidance path for automated navigation of large agricultural equipment. Vehicle path data from leading vehicles can be recorded, stored or inputted into the system for generation of guidance paths offset from the swaths traversed by the leading vehicle. Combines, planters sprayers and other vehicles utilizing guidance system can be used to record leading vehicle data for use by the following vehicle in real time or in subsequent cycles. Enterprise systems can manage multiple grain carts and/or combines or other vehicles to maximize efficiency.

TFT LCD AUTOMOBILE LIGHT FIXTURE
20210025563 · 2021-01-28 ·

A light bar has a circuit board positioned within a housing and having a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) or a thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display (TFT LCD) is configured to transmit light. The housing has wiring electrically connected to a controller. The controller is configured to receive signals from the electrical system of the vehicle, interpret the signals received from the electrical system of the vehicle, and in response automatically control illumination of independently controllable segments of the vehicle light bar. The controller is initially programmed to perform specific function(s) and/or strobe according to specific patterns and is thereafter at least partially restricted from being reprogrammed by a user to serve other function(s), either by restricting the emission of light in at least one color and/or preventing specific strobing pattern(s).
