  • Autonomous setup and takedown of calibration environment for vehicle sensor calibration
    Patent number: 11403891
    Abstract: A computing device receives a setup command and signals mobile robots to move sensor targets into positions within a predetermined range of a turntable. Each mobile robot may be coupled to a sensor target. Once the sensor targets are moved into the positions, calibration may be initiated, in which a vehicle is rotated using the turntable, and sensors coupled to the vehicle are calibrated based on detection of the sensor targets. The computing device may signal the mobile robots to adjust the sensor targets as needed, or, after calibration, to move into storage or charging positions.

  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR REDUCING VESSEL FUEL CONSUMPTION
    Publication number: 20220194533
    Abstract: A method for the reduction of ship fuel consumption through the optimisation of vessel draft, speed and trim using historical vessel data. Historical global, online data, is collected for multiple vessel operating parameters associated with its previous voyages. After initial filtering and cleaning of the gathered data, a process of analysing the data to determine the optimum draft, speed and trim for the vessels' given speed is described. The determined optimum draft, speed and trim values are then presented to the Captain or an automatic draft and trim optimisation system for the current draft and trim to be adjusted. This application therefore discloses a method for analysing historical vessel data to provide advice on optimum draft, trim and speed. A method for predicting the achievable fuel savings and recording the fuel savings achieved is also disclosed.

  • Dynamic Trap for Simple Network Management Protocol
    Publication number: 20220094608
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing a managed device on a network. An agent is run on the managed device. During runtime of the agent on the managed device, the agent receives dynamic trap parameter update values from network management station software running on a manager computer. The agent uses the dynamic trap parameter update values to set dynamic trap parameter values including trigger parameter values defining conditions for sending a dynamic trap. After setting the dynamic trap parameter values, the agent monitors the managed device to identify occurrence of an event that satisfies the conditions defined by the trigger parameter values. In response to identifying the occurrence of the event, the agent sends the dynamic trap to the network management station software running on the manager computer.
