  • Publication number: 20230303267
    Abstract: An autonomous vehicle includes a chassis for housing an aircraft ground contacting structure (GCS) and one or more GCS coupling and lifting mechanisms, GCS securing mechanisms, drivetrain, batteries and a sensor stack for performing autonomous navigation. Further, the vehicle incorporates multiple sensors, such as high-resolution machine vision cameras, GPS modules, Lidars, ultrasonic range sensors, and radars. The sensors deliver spatial perception capabilities to the vehicle and feed relevant data to onboard computing units to achieve location-based navigation, precision alignment with aircraft, obstacle detection and collision avoidance capabilities. A series of batteries deliver power to all components, including but not limited to, motors, electromechanical units, onboard computers, sensors and any other component requiring electrical input. External ports allow the vehicle to recharge batteries after each utilization cycle without replacement.

  • Patent number: 11077005
    Abstract: A portable, protective enclosure for coupling to a patient support includes a collapsible frame, a canopy drape, a pair of gloves and sleeves configured for receiving hands and arms of a user, and a zipper disposed along one of the side surfaces of the drape, wherein the side surface is not folded about itself when the zipper is in an open state. A pair of filters are disposed on opposing sides of one of the side surfaces of the canopy drape, the filters together providing high efficiency particulate air filtration for at least 99.97% of airborne particulate 0.3 microns in diameter. Gas-permeable media is provided for air intake. A fan in communication with the first and second filters is provided for creating negative pressure in the internal region of the canopy drape, the fan configured to evacuate air from the internal region. A negative pressure indicator also is included.
