  • Patent number: 12245730
    Abstract: An indoor mobile industrial robot system is configured to provide a weight to a detected object within an operating environment, where the weight relates to how static the feature is. The indoor mobile industrial robot system includes a mechanism configured to translate reflected light energy and positional information into a set of data points representing the detected object having at least one of Cartesian and/or polar coordinates, and an intensity. If any discrete data point within the set of data points representing the detected object has an intensity at or above a defined threshold the entire set of data points is converted into a weight and potentially classified representing a static feature, otherwise such set of data points is classified as representing a dynamic feature having a lower weight.

  • Patent number: 12240120
    Abstract: A method of operating a robot performing a task when receiving instructions to discontinue the task and perform an additional task. Having performed the additional task, the robot will revert to the position of performing the first task and continue the first task.

  • Patent number: 11935292
    Abstract: In a method or system in which an imaging element views navigation elements for e.g. navigation, the navigating elements may not be positioned optimally. Positions may exist in which the same angles exist from the imaging element to the same or similar navigating elements, whereby the positions are not unique. Navigation elements may then be repositioned, added or removed to make the positions unique.

  • Patent number: 11695909
    Abstract: A method for obtaining a three-dimensional model of an inspection site, using a perception module, is disclosed. The perception module comprises a detection unit, e.g. comprising one or more cameras and/or a three-dimensional laser scanner, configured to obtain a three-dimensional image. At least one three-dimensional image is obtained by means of the detection unit. A three-dimensional model of surroundings of the perception module is created, based on the obtained three-dimensional image. The created three-dimensional model and a plan of the inspection site are compared and features of the created three-dimensional model and features of the plan of the inspection site are matched. A site-specific three-dimensional model of the inspection site is formed, based on the created three-dimensional model and the plan of the inspection site, and based on the comparison.
