  • Publication number: 20240070010
    Abstract: A device for processing an abnormal sleep state of an operating system is provided. The processing device includes a detection unit, an abnormal event determination unit, an event information verification unit and an abnormality notification unit. The detection unit detects whether a screen lid closing event occurs, wherein the operating system is preset to enter a sleep mode when a screen lid is closed, and the operating system is preset to enter a wake-up mode when the screen lid is opened. The abnormal event determination unit determines whether the screen lid is closed and whether an event that the operating system is not entering the sleep mode occurs. The event information verification unit verifies an event information and determines whether the event is classified as an abnormal event. The abnormality notification unit sends an abnormality notification to a system administrator unit, which performs a processing according to power status.

Depth data of obstacles, acquired by depth sensors deployed in a 3D robot workspace and represented with respect to a sensor coordinate system, is transformed into depth data with respect to a robot coordinate system. The 3D robot workspace is discretized to generate 3D grid points representing a discretized 3D robot workspace. Based on the depth data with respect to the robot coordinate system, binarized values are assigned to at least some of 3D grid points to generate a binarized representation for the obstacles present in the 3D robot workspace. With respect to one or more sensing points associated with a part of a robot, it is determined whether the part is to collide with any obstacle. Based on the determining, a path is planned for the robot to move along while avoiding any obstacle.
