Abstract: A system for crowdsourcing reporting of road conditions from abnormal vehicle events. Abnormal vehicle events (such as sudden braking, sharp turns, evasive actions, pothole impact, etc.) can be detected and reported to a road condition monitoring system (RCMS). The RCMS can identify patterns in reported road conditions to generate advisory information or instructions for vehicles and users of vehicles. For example, suspected obstacles can be identified and used to instruct a driver or a vehicle to slow down gradually to avoid sudden braking and sharp turns. In some examples, a vehicle can have a camera that can upload an image of a suspected obstacle (e.g., a pothole) to allow the positive identification of a road problem. This provides the RCMS with more confidence to take a corrective action, such as an automated call to a road repair service.

Abstract: A robot that transfers a substrate includes a hand, an arm, a substrate detector, and a substrate orientation examiner. The hand holds and transfers the substrate. The arm is connected to the hand and moves the hand. The substrate detector detects absence or presence of the substrate in a non-contact manner. The substrate orientation examiner examines an orientation of the substrate based on a height detected by the substrate detector at which the substrate is located when it is not held by the hand.
