Abstract: In resource sharing by autonomous devices in an environment, first and second autonomous devices send first and second reservation requests, respectively, to a reservation controller for access to a resource in the environment required to perform first and second tasks. The first and second reservation requests include first and second requested utilizations, respectively, for usage of the resource. The first autonomous device receives a first permit with a first granted utilization, and the second autonomous device receives a second permit with a second granted utilization, for usage of the resource. Using the resource, the first autonomous device performs the first task according to the first granted utilization, and the second autonomous device performs the second task according to second granted utilization, where second granted utilization does not conflict with the first granted utilization.

Abstract: A tracking system obtains first recognized object and its first information, detected in image(s) captured by camera(s). The first information includes the first recognized object's first features, first feature locations, first real-world dimensions, and a first time. A list of tracking objects is obtained, each including a second recognized object and its second information. The second information includes the second recognized object's second features, second feature locations, and second real-world dimensions. The system compares the first features with the second features stored in a given tracking object, the first feature locations with the second feature locations, and the first real-world dimensions with the second real-world dimensions. When they match, the first information comprising the first time is stored in the given tracking object.

Abstract: A tracking system for tracking movements of an object in an area using a plurality of cameras: obtains a first recognized object and first information associated with the first recognized object, where the first recognized object is detected in a first image captured by a first camera, where the first information includes a first location of the first recognized object; stores the first recognized object and the first information in a tracking object on a list of tracking objects; obtains a second recognized object and second information associated with the second recognized object, where the second recognized object is detected in a second image captured by a second camera, where the second information includes a second location of the second recognized object; compares the first information with the second information; and when matched, stores the second information comprising the second location in the tracking object.
