Publication number: 20230304401Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods to bore or tunnel through various geologies in an autonomous or substantially autonomous manner including one or more non-contact boring elements that direct energy at the bore face to remove material from the bore face through the fracture, spallation, and removal of the material. Systems can automatically execute methods to control a set of boring parameters that affect the flux of energy directed at the bore face. Systems can further automatically execute the methods to: monitor, direct, maintain, and/or adjust a set of boring controls, including for example a standoff distance between the system and the bore face, a temperature of exhaust gases directed at the bore face, a removal rate of material from the bore face, and/or a thermal or topological characterization of the bore face during boring operations.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 4, 2023Publication date: September 28, 2023Applicant: ArcByt, Inc.Inventors: Ian Wright, Arielle Dobrowolski, Matthew James Wright, Shivani Torres

Patent number: 11598209Abstract: Systems to bore or tunnel through various geologies in an autonomous or substantially autonomous manner can include one or more non-contact boring elements that direct energy at the bore face to remove material from the bore face through fracture, spallation, and removal of the material. The systems can automatically execute methods to control a set of boring parameters that affect the flux of energy directed at the bore face. Systems can further automatically execute the methods to trigger an optical sensor to capture images at the bore face, generate temperature profiles, identify spall fragments and hot zones and/or adjust a set of boring controls. For example, the system can execute methods to adjust a standoff distance between the system and the bore face, and adjust power and/or gas supply to the non-contact boring element.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2021Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: ArcByt, Inc.Inventors: Kimberly Abrams, Shivani Torres, Kamyar Mosavat, Barzin Moridian, Artem Tkachenko, Matthew Strangeway, Molly Dicke, Arielle Dobrowolski, Randy Link, Nimit Baid
