Abstract: An air processing system is disclosed. The system includes a mobile robot, and the robot includes an intake module, the module includes a manifold, a first airfoil disposed on the manifold and configured to allow air of an area designed to have its air cleaned to enter the manifold, a second airfoil disposed one the manifold opposite the first airfoil configured to allow air from the area to enter the manifold, and a collector provided in between the first airfoil and the second airfoil and disposed on the manifold configured to receive air from the manifold and thus filter the air, and the system further includes a controller configured to provide one of remote control and autonomous control of the mobile robot.

Abstract: An apparatus for energy extraction from fluid flow including an assembly including a plenum. The assembly further includes an aperture extending from an exterior surface to the plenum to allow flow therethrough. The apparatus further includes a channel including an inlet and an outlet in fluid communication with the plenum. The apparatus yet further includes an energy extraction device. The assembly is configured to create a pressure differential between the plenum and the inlet of the channel. The pressure differential causes fluid flow from the inlet of the channel to the plenum. The energy extraction device is configured to extract energy from the fluid flow. The apparatus additionally includes a control system configured to modify the pressure differential to control the fluid flow between the inlet of the channel and the plenum based on a characteristic of an exterior environment.
