  • Patent number: 11644845
    Abstract: An industrial vehicle is provided comprising a drive mechanism, a steering mechanism, a vehicle controller, a camera, and a navigation module. The camera is communicatively coupled to the navigation module, the vehicle controller is responsive to commands from the navigation module, and the drive mechanism and the steering mechanism are responsive to commands from the vehicle controller. The camera is configured to capture an input image of a warehouse ceiling comprising elongated skylights, isolated ceiling lights, and/or active optical targets. The navigation module is configured to distinguish between the ceiling lights and the skylights and send commands to the vehicle controller for localization, or to navigate the industrial vehicle through the warehouse based upon valid ceiling light identification, valid skylight identification, valid active target identification, or combinations thereof.

  • Patent number: 10430852
    Abstract: In an approach for aggregating interests across a social network to influence search results by a user, a processor retrieves a set of product documents given a rating by social network connections of a user within a social network. A processor categorizes each product document of the set of product documents such that there is at least a first product category. A processor receives a search request for a product from the user. A processor determines that the product of the search request corresponds to the first product category. A processor presents a search result product based on ratings of product documents of the first product category.
