An application processor processes an application. A sensor processor acquires image data from an image sensor and analyzes the image data. A motion controlling processor controls motion of a movable part of a robot. The motion controlling processor provides posture information for specifying an orientation of the image sensor to the sensor processor, not via the application processor. The posture information includes information for specifying a position of the image sensor.

A control system 4 includes an application processor that executes a first operating system to process an application, a sensor processor that executes a second operating system to process image data acquired by an image sensor, and a motion controlling processor that executes a third operating system to control motion of a movable part of a robot. The first operating system, the second operating system, and the third operating system are different from each other.

To reduce the expense associated with having experts work at remote hydrocarbon recovery, exploration, operation, or services environment site, such experts may use a virtual real time operation center to obtain information from and give instructions to the remote site. Such a virtual operation center may receive information from the site from a variety of different machines such as equipment pieces, controllers, or human machine interface personal computers.

To reduce costs and free on-site personnel to freely move about a well site in a hydrocarbon recovery, exploration, operation, or services environment, systems and methods are presented for collecting data associated with one or more on-site pieces of equipment, distributing the collected data using a network system, optionally storing the collected data in one or more resources including databases, and producing a notification on a wearable notification device based, at least in part, on the collected data to enable on-site users to respond to the collected data by modifying on-site operations.

A virtual presence may be established to provide engagement with equipment and operators at a hydrocarbon recovery, exploration, operation, or services environments in order to reduce the expense associated with having knowledge experts, or other personnel, travel to and work at remote hydrocarbon recovery, exploration, operation, or services environments. For example, a wearable device may allow a user, such as a subject matter expert, at a virtual real time operation center to view data from equipment located at the site.

To reduce costs and improve efficiency: of one or more operations associated with a hydrocarbon recovery, exploration, operation or services site, a control system utilizes one or more sensors to obtain real-time data associated with one or more pieces of equipment at one or more sites, utilizes one or more audio-visual devices to provide one or more notifications based, at least in part, on the real-time data, utilizes one or more control devices to produce one or more commands based, at least in part, on the one or more notifications, and utilizes a network, system to provide the one or more commands to one or more pieces; of equipment at the one or more sites to control the one or more pieces of equipment Farther, a method is presented for collecting real-time data, providing notifications from an audiovisual device based, at least in part, on the on-site data associated with one or snore pieces of equipment at one or more sites, generating a command from, a control device, providing the command to one or more pieces of equipment; and controlling the one or more on-site equipment based, at least in part, on the command.

A control system for plant-growing facilities can use growth plan templates representing programming for plant-growing devices performing automated operations and representing tasks for entry in a calendar and completion by a workforce of the plant-growing facilities. The growth plan templates may be authored or traded and may be modified based on data collect during instances in which the growth plan is used to grow batches of plants.
