  • Publication number: 20220291685
    Abstract: A method and system to improve autonomous robotic system responsive behavior, to control the autonomous responsive behavior of a robotic system based on a set of simultaneously and cooperatively performed real-time action based on a plurality of acquisition sources providing relevant data about the surroundings of the system, wherein the data is processed by a set of modules globally controlled and managed by a Central Processing Module comprising a multitude of control and decision AI algorithms multidirectionally that allow define the autonomous responsive behaviors of the robotic system.

  • Publication number: 20190354102
    Abstract: The present application discloses an autonomous robotic system, arising from the need to make this type of systems more rational and ‘conscious’, favoring their complete integration in the environment around them. This integration is promoted through the integration of sensory data, information entered by the user, and context information sent by external agents to which the system is connected. Real-time processing of all these data, coming from different entities, endows the system with an intelligence that allows it to operate according to different operation modes, according to the function assigned thereto, allowing it to operate exclusively following its user or alternatively to move autonomously directly to a particular defined point.

  • Patent number: 9948917
    Abstract: It is described an autonomous system for tracking an individual, comprising: wheeled vehicle; 3D depth camera, distance and/or touch sensors; at least two motors, each to drive one or more wheels respectively from both sides, left and right, of the mentioned vehicle; data processing module, comprising a decision unit configured to: if the 3D depth camera detects that the distance between the system and the individual to follow is inferior to a predetermined limit, decrease the speed of the two motors; if the 3D depth camera detects that the person to be followed exceeds a predetermined limit on the left or right of a horizontal predefined point, increase the engine speed on the right, slowing the speed of the left engine, or vice versa.
