  • Patent number: 12342794
    Abstract: In some implementations, a controller may obtain global positioning system (GPS) data from a GPS unit of an enrichment device. The controller may determine habitat information identifying a habitat for animals, of a plurality of habitats of animals, using the GPS data. The controller may determine a geofence of the habitat for animals based on the habitat information. The controller may determine a movement profile associated with the habitat for animals using the habitat information. The movement profile identifies one or more motions of the enrichment device. The controller may cause the enrichment device to move, within a boundary of the geofence, in accordance with the one or more motions of the movement profile. The enrichment device may move in accordance with the one or more motions to stimulate movement of one or more animals of the habitat for animals. The controller may monitor the movement and/or animal interaction.

  • Publication number: 20250148152
    Abstract: An HIL simulation platform may analyze a computer-aided design (CAD) drawing of a device of an operator console. The HIL simulation platform may determine, based on analyzing the CAD drawing, device type information and signal information of the device. The device type information identifies a device type of the device and the signal information identifies one or more signal types of signals associated with the device. The HIL simulation platform may generate, based on the device type information, a simulation device for an HIL simulation of an operation of the device in an HIL simulation environment. The HIL simulation platform may generate, based on the signal information, a name of an output signal from the simulation device. The HIL simulation platform may map, based on the name, the output signal to a controller device in a real world environment and execute a computer model to perform the HIL simulation.
