Publication number: 20240086862Abstract: The system, devices and methods disclosed herein enable autonomous operation of robots around known and unknown obstacles on a property. A robot includes an optical marker disposed to be visible in a top-view image of the robot, a receiver configured to receive a top-down image of an area of interest surrounding the robot within a property, and a processor configured to distinguish the robot from structural features on the property based on an image of the optical marker. A position and an orientation of the robot and the structural features relative to the property is determined based on the top-down image. Among the structural features, a subset of features classified as obstacles inhibiting an operation of the robot as the robot moves within the area of interest is determined. An operating path for the robot within the area of interest so as to avoid the obstacles is then determined.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: ELECTRIC SHEEP ROBOTICS, INC.Inventors: Naganand MURTY, Gunjit SINGH, Jarrett Jeffrey HEROLD

Patent number: 11715072Abstract: The system, devices and methods herein enable autonomous and tele-operation of tele-operated robots for maintenance of a property around known and unknown obstacles. A method may include using an unmanned aerial vehicle for obtaining additional data relating to the property and obstacles within the property and plan a path around the obstacles using data from sensors on-board the tele-operated robot and the aerial image. A method may also provide optimization of total time needed for performing the property maintenance and the labor costs in situations where manual intervention is needed for navigating the tele-operated robot around obstacles on the property or for removing obstacles on the property.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2020Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: ELECTRIC SHEEP ROBOTICS, INC.Inventors: Naganand Murty, Gunjit Singh, Jarrett Jeffrey Herold

Publication number: 20150066119Abstract: Infant warming systems are described herein generally comprising a temperature regulation assembly which encloses a phase change material (PCM). The temperature regulation assembly may be initially heated (or re-heated) by water contained within a heating assembly and then placed within a retaining pouch of an infant bedding. The PCM may then provide constant heat over a period of time to the infant. A control/indicator interface coupled to the regulation assembly may constantly monitor the temperature of the PCM as well as the ambient temperature to provide one or more indications or alerts to the user with respect to one of several states of the warming assembly.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2013Publication date: March 5, 2015Applicant: Embrace InnovationsInventors: Rahul A.

Publication number: 20150012075Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for regulating body temperature. The system includes a housing that comprises compartments for a phase change material and a heat transfer material. The compartments are configured to transfer heat from the heat transfer material to the phase change material. A temperature sensor is used to determine when the phase change material has reached a pre-determined temperature. When the pre-determined temperature is reached, a release mechanism or lever is coupled to the temperature sensor to separate the phase change material compartment from the heat transfer material compartment or to remove the heat transfer material away from the phase change material compartment. The heated phase change material compartment can be used to regulate body temperature.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2014Publication date: January 8, 2015Inventors: Linus Liang, Jane Chen, Rahul Panicker, Naganand Murty, Eu-wen Ding, Rajan Patel
