  • Publication number: 20240391498
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to methods and systems for automatic problematic maneuver detection and adapted motion planning. A computing device may obtain a route for navigation by a vehicle and a set of vehicle parameters corresponding to the vehicle. Each vehicle parameter can represent a physical attribute of the vehicle. The computing device may generate a virtual vehicle that represents the vehicle based on the set of vehicle parameters and perform a simulation that involves the virtual vehicle navigating the route. Based on the results of the simulation, the computing device may provide the original route or a modified route to the vehicle for the vehicle to subsequently navigate to its destination. In some cases, the simulation may further factor additional conditions, such as potential weather and traffic conditions that are likely to occur during the time when the vehicle plans on navigating the route.

  • Publication number: 20240265553
    Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting dynamic objects using a mesh network of nodes coupled to cameras are disclosed. The system can receive sequences of frames captured by a first capture device having a first pose and a second capture device having a second pose, and track objects over time across the first sequence of frames and the second sequence of frames. The system can map the objects to three-dimensional (3D) positions in a 3D coordinate space based on correspondences between the indications of the objects. The system can determine a 3D displacement of a subset of the 3D points, and generate a 3D volume surrounding the subset. The system can use the 3D volume to classify and predict a trajectory for the dynamic object, as well as determine a risk the dynamic object poses to a protected volume in the 3D coordinate space.

  • Patent number: 11691470
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel robot drive train that is robust, and low cost. The drive train is capable of ascending obstacles greater than the height of its wheels, protects the robot against shocks/vibration, and is highly maneuverable, such as able to execute a zero-point turn. To control the bogie in a variety of scenarios, a novel mechanism is used to selectively limit the articulation range of the bogie and/or programmatically apply a preload to the bogie axle.
