  • Patent number: 11768880
    Abstract: Community-driven, context-aware (e.g., geospatially and space-time aware) intelligent research assistant systems are provided. A virtual assistant application of a user computing system may receive a query from a user and provide the query to a server. The server may determine a category and topic of the query and determine whether an application exists for the category and topic. When the application exists, the server may call an application programming interface (API) associated with the application that executes finite state machine (FSM) logic to determine a context-aware answer to the query and provide the determined context-aware answer to the virtual assistant application.

  • Patent number: 11737627
    Abstract: Methods and software for setting parameters for operating a modular robot are disclosed. One method includes receiving, by a server, communications data from a controller of the modular robot. The modular robot has storage for storing program instructions for executing autonomous movement at a location. The method includes sending, by the server, an initial outline for the controller to generate calibrated mapping data for the location. The calibrated mapping data identifies an outline at the location. The method includes sending, by the server, identification of at least two zones at the location, where the at least two zones define different areas at the location. The controller of the modular robot is configured to use the calibrated mapping data for said autonomous movement at the location and the controller is configured to operate a respective work function in each of the at least two zones.
