An autonomous robot comprises: a body, that is elongated along an axis oriented transverse to a direction of movement of the robot and, connected to the elongated body, a multispectral sensor, precisely two wheels, and a stabilizing device for controlling the pitch of the elongated body when the wheels are in motion, the wheels being in the form of spoked wheels.

A vehicle height adjustment control apparatus is provided for compensating for vehicle pulls including a recognition device that recognizes that a vehicle is driven straight, a determination device that determines whether the vehicle pulls of the vehicle occur, in response to recognizing that the vehicle is driven straight, and a controller that generates a warning message and calculates compensation height control information of the vehicle in response to determining that the vehicle pulls occur.

The present disclosure relates to a steering control apparatus and method, the apparatus comprising: a reception unit which receives an ignition-off signal and an ignition-on signal, and which receives relative steering angle information received from a relative steering angle sensor for measuring only the relative angle of a steering wheel; a calculation unit which calculates section information by using the relative steering angle information, and which calculates absolute steering angle information on the basis of the relative steering angle information and the section information; and a control unit which determines, when the ignition-off signal is received, whether absolute steering angle calculation conditions enabling calculation of the absolute steering angle information are satisfied even after the ignition is off, and which generates an ignition-off control signal according to the determination result.

A device for adjusting camber and/or toe of a vehicle wheel of a motor vehicle, includes a wheel carrier including a wheel-side carrier part, an axle-side guide part and rotary parts arranged between the wheel-side carrier part and the axle-side guide part, the rotary parts being supported on a common bearing site for rotation relative to each other about a rotation axis, the wheel-side carrier part being rotatable about said rotation axis about an instantaneous center of rotation for toe or camber adjustment of the vehicle wheel and supporting a brake caliper interacting with a brake disc of the vehicle wheel; and a torque bridge configured as a torque transmission element which supports the wheel-side carrier part on the axle-side guide part when a braking moment acts on the wheel-side carrier part during a braking process, and which when supporting the wheel-side carrier part on the axle-side guide part generates a directed force component with which the wheel-side carrier part is impingable.

A universal traction device for movement over even and uneven supporting surfaces that includes an all-terrain wheel having a circular wheel assembly with a plurality of spoke-containing components arrayed around an outer perimeter wheel edge and control means for extending spokes from the spoke-containing units when encountering an obstacle that the vehicle is to traverse and retracting the spokes when the spokes are no longer required for traversing the obstacle.

The present disclosure relates to an integrated control apparatus for a vehicle, a system including the same, and a method thereof, and an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure provides an integrated control apparatus for a vehicle, including: a processor configured to perform braking control in an initial stage of steering control of a driver, to control a damping force of an electronic controlled suspension, to release the braking control in a later stage of steering control of the driver, and to increase the damping force of the electronic controlled suspension; and a storage configured to store data obtained by the processor and an algorithm for driving the processor.

The present disclosure relates to a controller for controlling operation of at least first and second traction machines in a vehicle. The controller includes a processor configured to predict an operating temperature of each of said at least first and second traction machines for at least a portion of a current route. The processor determines at least first and second torque requests for said at least first and second traction machines. The at least first and second torque requests are determined in dependence on the predicted operating temperatures of the at least first and second traction machines. The processor generates at least first and second traction motor control signals in dependence on the determined at least first and second torque requests. The present disclosure also relates to method of controlling at least first and second traction machines in a vehicle.

A method and apparatus for controlling a vehicle are disclosed. The method comprises acquiring an acceleration of a front wheel and a rear wheel, determining that the front wheel is passing a bump of a road in response to determining that the acceleration of the front wheel is outside an acceleration range and fluctuates in the range wider than the acceleration range within a first maximum time period, determining that the rear wheel is passing the bump in response to determining that the acceleration of the rear wheel is outside the acceleration range and fluctuates in the range wider than the acceleration range within a second maximum time period, and in response to determining that the front wheel has passed the bump and the rear wheel is passing the bump, controlling a drive unit of the vehicle.
