Patent number: 8508590Abstract: A method and apparatus for simulating a physical environment to facilitate vehicle operation and task completion is described. In one embodiment, the method includes processing data that is transmitted from a sensor array comprising a plurality of devices, wherein the plurality of devices are placed throughout a physical environment that comprises a plurality of objects, accessing model information associated with the plurality of objects, wherein the model information indicates at least one physical attribute associated with each of the plurality of objects, correlating the model information with the transmitted data from the sensor array to produce a correlation result, generating at least one visual representation of the physical environment from at least one viewpoint based on the correlation result and identifying at least one obstruction, within the physical environment, using the at least one visual representation.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2010Date of Patent: August 13, 2013Assignee: Crown Equipment LimitedInventors: Matthew Edwin Laws, Christopher W.

Patent number: 8290833Abstract: A global supply chain management system in an environment of multiple suppliers forming supply chains for one or more buyers connected over the Internet. The system includes a global processor with logic that maps “local” supply information for each buyer and each supplier, represented in one or more property tables having master information correlated to local information for each buyer and each supplier. The system manages processes from an input of lots to an output through supplier stages where clients each use fragmented different local information. A correlation means uses base lot indicators, one for each of the lots in common for all of said stages and executes supply chain management functions for tracking lots through the supplier stages and for dynamic creation of sets of purchase orders among groups of suppliers for processing the same lot through the supply chain.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2009Date of Patent: October 16, 2012Assignee: E2Open, Inc.Inventors: Lou Ping Yang, Mingtang Thomas Yin, Edwin Law, Siqing Wei, Johnson Lee

Publication number: 20120123614Abstract: A method and apparatus for virtualizing industrial vehicles to automate task execution in a physical environment is described. In one embodiment, the method includes determining input parameters for controlling vehicle hardware components, wherein the vehicle hardware components comprise actuators that are used to control hardware component operations, generating mappings between the input parameters and the hardware component operations, wherein each of the input parameters is applied to an actuator to perform an corresponding hardware component operation, correlating the mappings with vehicle commands to produce abstraction information and executing at least one task comprising various ones of the vehicle commands using the abstraction information.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2010Publication date: May 17, 2012Applicant: INRO TECHNOLOGIES LIMITEDInventors: MATTHEW EDWIN LAWS, GRANT ANDREW SARGENT, TOBY HARTNOLL JOSHUA COLLETT, ANDREW EVAN GRAHAM, CHRISTOPHER JAMES CHAMBERS, KASHYAP CHANDRASEKAR, CHRISTOPHER W.
