  • Patent number: 10916004
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of processing depth data and image data from a robotic device having a camera and a depth measurement device mounted to a chassis of the robotic device to generate a data set representative of a three-dimensional map of an environment in which the robotic device is located. The camera is arranged to generate image data relating to the environment. The depth measurement device is arranged to generate depth data relating to the environment. The method comprises generating image data and depth data at a first location of the robotic device in the environment, whereby to generate a first data set comprising a plurality of data points. The method further comprises moving the robotic device to at least a second location in the environment. The method further comprises generating image data and depth data at the second location, whereby to generate a second data set comprising a plurality of data points.

  • Patent number: 10875044
    Abstract: A robotic vehicle, in particular for spraying insulation material, comprises a chassis (110), at least two driven wheels (122) having a common axis of rotation, and a wheel connecting member (151) which connects the two wheels (122). The wheel connecting member (151) is connected to the chassis by a pivotal connection which allows the wheel connecting member to pivot with respect to the chassis about a pivoting axis transverse to the common axis of rotation of the wheels. The wheel connecting member (151) may be removably mounted to the chassis (110).
