  • Publication number: 20240094737
    Abstract: Systems and methods for operating a mobile robot is disclosed. The system can include a processor and a plurality of sensors mounted on the mobile robot. The method includes operating the mobile robot to autonomously navigate along a trajectory. While the mobile robot autonomously navigates along the trajectory, the method involves operating the processor to: monitor an angular velocity and a linear velocity of the mobile robot; determine one or more critical sensor regions defined with reference to the mobile robot based at least on the angular velocity and the linear velocity of the mobile robot; and adapt the operation of the plurality of sensors to prioritize capture of sensor data within the one or more critical sensor regions. Each sensor can be operable to capture the sensor data for an adjustable detection region defined with respect to the sensor and the mobile robot.

  • Publication number: 20230334645
    Abstract: A system for detecting damage to a glass surface particularly vehicle glazing panels such as vehicle windscreens. The system uses a sensor unit disposed proximate the surface and a processor in communication with the sensor unit. The processor is configured to analyse data received from the sensor unit in order to determine the integrity of the surface and a communication unit is configured to output a signal in response to the processor determining that the surface has been damaged. For vehicle glass the system is preferably integrated into the vehicle management and control systems such that the system is active when the vehicle is active or moving. The management and or control system may monitor for instances or situations when changes, such as above threshold changes, occur in order to produce an output warning signal.

  • Patent number: 10843881
    Abstract: A bulk loader system is disclosed that may include a conveyor unit in connection with a fuel-powered engine powering a hydraulic motor. The hydraulic motor may be used to operate the conveyor unit. The system may be configured to function while being mounted on a bed of a truck or be operated as a stand-alone unit. The unit may be sized such that an operator can stand on the deck of the truck along with the unit. The fuel-hydraulic powered motor can enable the conveyor unit to operate at variable speeds. The conveyor unit can be adjustable to facilitate controlling the direction of the material being transported via the conveyor. Some embodiments can include operating the hydraulics of the motor from the Power Take-Off (“PTO”) of the truck. Some embodiments can facilitate operation of the system in a hot or other harsh environment.
