Publication number: 20220016772Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for robot motion planning using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). One of the methods includes determining that a current plan for performing a particular task with a robot requires modification; in response, generating one or more flight plans for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based on a robotic operating environment comprising the robot; obtaining, using the UAV in accordance with the one or more flight plans, a new measurement of the robotic operating environment comprising the robot; and generating, based at least on a difference between the new measurement of the robotic operating environment and a previous measurement of the robotic operating environment, a modified plan for performing the particular task with the robot.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 17, 2020Publication date: January 20, 2022Inventors: Michael Barrett Hill, Adam Nicholas Ruxton

Patent number: 11203120Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a mobile robotic frame system. In some implementations, a mobile robot includes a motorized frame that is configured to travel to a location. The mobile robot includes a positioning assembly coupled to the motorized frame, a robotic arm having a manipulator, and sensors coupled to the motorized frame. A control system is configured to process data from the sensors and, based on the data from the sensors, provide control data to (i) move the motorized frame, (ii) adjust one or more movable components of the positioning assembly, and (ii) move the robotic arm relative to the motorized frame. The one or more movable components and the robotic arm are operable to position the manipulator at any position in a three-dimensional work volume with 6 degrees of freedom while the motorized frame remains at the location.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2019Date of Patent: December 21, 2021Assignee: Intrinsic Innovation LLCInventor: Michael Barrett Hill

Patent number: 11027871Abstract: The apparatus includes a moveable support platform within the container to reduce a distance that items fall into the container when stowed. The support platform is lowered by a movement mechanism as items are placed into the container. The movement mechanism may be a bladder filled with air, a biasing device, a pneumatic device, or a mechanical device. The moveable support may form a bottom portion of the container during transport of the container. In some instances, the movement mechanism may lift items out of the container to empty the container at a destination.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2019Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Samuel Gardner Garrett, Martin Peter Aalund, Vinay Balan, Michael Barrett Hill, David Bruce McCalib, Jr., Timothy Alan Talda, Toby Ge Xu

Publication number: 20200292459Abstract: A CMOS-based chip having one or more sensing modalities that are able independently to detect multiple metabolites present in a biological sample. The multiple sensing modalities may be provided at different locations with respect to the chip, whereby the chip can simultaneously detect a plurality of metabolites by measuring behaviour of a test material in the different locations. The chip may utilise paper as a transport mechanism for the sample. The paper either conveys the sample to the different locations or itself provides discrete testing zones in which different metabolites can be independently detected. With this technique, multiple metabolites may be measured in real time using a small scale point-of-care device.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 23, 2018Publication date: September 17, 2020Applicant: The University Court of the University of GlasgowInventors: David Robert Sime CUMMING, Samadahn PATIL, Mohammed AL-RAWHANI, Michael BARRETT, Dharmendra DHEEMAN, Chunxiao HU
