  • AUTONOMOUS MANEUVER GENERATION TO MATE CONNECTORS
    Publication number: 20220276652
    Abstract: A method includes providing an image to a feature extraction model to generate feature data. The image depicts a portion of a first device and a portion of a second device. The feature data includes coordinates representing key points of each of the first and second devices depicted in the image. The method also includes obtaining position data indicating a position in 3D space of a connector of the first device. The method further includes providing the feature data and the position data to a trained autonomous agent to generate a proposed maneuver to mate the connector with a connector of the second device.
