  • Publication number: 20240171092
    Abstract: A vibration actuator includes a vibrator, a contact body, at least one pair of first extensions, and at least one pair of second extensions. The vibrator includes a rectangular elastic body and an electromechanical energy transducer. The contact body comes into contact with the rectangular elastic body and the contact body and the vibrator move relative to each other due to vibration of the vibrator. The at least one pair of first extensions is disposed on each of two long sides of the rectangular elastic body, and protrudes in a direction intersecting a long-side direction of the rectangular elastic body. The at least one pair of second extensions is disposed on each of two short sides of the rectangular elastic body, and protrudes in a direction intersecting a short-side direction of the rectangular elastic body.

  • Patent number: 11971721
    Abstract: To effectively enhance the operation efficiency of an autonomous mobile robot, an autonomous mobile robot control system includes a processor and a plurality of environmental cameras. The processor estimates a moving route of each of a plurality of moving bodies on the basis of characteristics of each of the plurality of moving bodies and sets a subset of the plurality of moving bodies whose moving routes overlap among the detected moving bodies as avoidance processing target moving bodies. The processor generates an avoidance procedure for the avoidance processing target moving bodies so the motion of the avoidance processing target moving bodies does not interfere with the motion of other avoidance target moving bodies.

  • Patent number: 11964402
    Abstract: In a robot control system, the operation of a mobile robot that moves autonomously inside a facility is controlled based at least on an image captured by a photographing device that photographs a blind area located at a blind angle to the mobile robot. When entry of the mobile robot into a predetermined area corresponding to the blind area is detected, the amount of information obtainable from an image captured by the photographing device is increased.
