  • Publication number: 20240350215
    Abstract: A robotic system includes a processor and a robotic platform in communication with the processor. The robotic platform is configured to couple to a first procedure-specific end effector. The first procedure-specific end effector is controllable by the robotic platform and is selected to perform a first type of procedure. The processor is configured to receive first procedure-specific code and to execute the first procedure-specific code to cause the robotic platform to operate the first procedure-specific end effector to perform the first type of procedure.

  • Patent number: 12065155
    Abstract: A vehicle control system for controlling a vehicle, including a set of task nodes, wherein each of the set of task nodes compares a failure criterion to input to the task node to generate a failure flag and provides output to at least one other task node of the set of task nodes; an aggregator node directly communicatively coupled to each of the set of task nodes, and wherein the aggregator node: receives a set of failure flags from the set of task nodes, determines a failure tier based on the set of failure flags, and generates a failure tier message defining the failure tier; and, a behavior planning node communicatively coupled to the aggregator node, wherein the behavior planning node: receives the failure tier message, and in response to the failure tier defined by the failure tier message, generates vehicle control instructions.
