Patent number: 11644831Abstract: Systems and methods for operating a vehicle by switching between an autonomous control system within the vehicle and a remote operator are described herein. For the handover between the autonomous control system and the remote operator, the system can process current maneuvering parameters of the vehicle to at least select a teleoperation control type. The system can also generate a concurrent feature profile including a set of automated features that are configured to be implemented during teleoperation of the vehicle. The system can implement the handover of vehicle control according to the teleoperation control type while the vehicle autonomously or semi-autonomously operates according to the concurrent feature profile.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2021Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: Udelv, Inc.Inventors: Akshat Patel, Hugo Boyer, Vineet Singh

Patent number: 11498627Abstract: Systems and methods for delivering a requested payload using an autonomous delivery vehicle are described herein. In some embodiments, a cargo system for use with an autonomous delivery vehicle can include a frame defining a cargo space having an opening. A plurality of partitions can be positioned within the cargo space and configured to divide the cargo space into compartments. In some embodiments, the partitions are movable so that the cargo space can be divided into efficiently-sized compartments based on, for example, size characteristics of the payload. The cargo system can further include an access system configured to selectively define an aperture over the opening of the cargo space. The access system can vary the size and position of the aperture to provide access to only a selected one of the compartments regardless of the size and/or position of the selected compartment.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2020Date of Patent: November 15, 2022Assignee: UDELV, Inc.Inventors: Akshat Patel, Daniel Laury

Patent number: 10467581Abstract: Systems and methods for delivering a requested payload using an autonomous delivery vehicle are described herein. An end-user can order a delivery of the requested payload, and a delivery management system can select a delivery region corresponding to the order. The delivery management system can further generate one or more delivery tasks and delivery routes corresponding to the tasks. The delivery management system can operate the autonomous delivery vehicle according to the tasks and the routes to pick up the requested payload from a pickup location and to transport the requested payload to a delivery location.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2018Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: UDELV INC.Inventors: Daniel Laury, Akshat Patel
