  • Publication number: 20240338032
    Abstract: Provided herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product aspects, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for artificial intelligence in mobile autonomous robotics and autonomous mobile platforms. An example aspect operates by a method of using a general-purpose robotics operating system (GPROS) with generative pre-trained transformers (GPT) (GPROS-GPT) model. The method includes training the GPROS-GPT model and querying the GPROS-GPT model to generate GPROS configuration data and service extension files. The method further includes loading the configuration data and the service extension files into a GPROS-based application and using the GPROS-based application to operate a GPROS-based robot or a GPROS-based autonomous vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20240255946
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a general purpose operating system (GPROS) that shows particular usefulness in the robotics and automation fields. The operating system provides individual services and the combination and interconnections of such services using built-in service extensions, built-in completely configurable generic services, and ways to plug in additional service extensions to yield a comprehensive and cohesive framework for developing, configuring, assembling, constructing, deploying, and managing robotics and/or automation applications. The disclosure includes GPROS extensions and features directed to use as an autonomous vehicle operating system. The vehicle controlled by appropriate versions of the GPROS can include unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) applications such as a driverless or self-driving car. The vehicle can likewise or instead include an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) such as a helicopter or drone.

  • Patent number: 11280704
    Abstract: An integrated automated robotic test system for automated driving systems is disclosed, which is operable to provide an automated testing system for coordinated robotic control of automobiles equipped with automation functions (i.e., test vehicles) and unmanned target robots with which test vehicles may safely collide. The system may include a system for controlling a vehicle that includes a brake actuator, a throttle actuator, and a steering actuator. The brake actuator is controlled by a brake motor and configured to press and release a brake pedal of the vehicle. The throttle actuator is controlled by a throttle motor and configured to press and release a gas pedal of the vehicle. The steering actuator is configured to control a steering wheel of the vehicle. The steering actuator includes a steering motor configured to attach to the steering wheel and a reaction stand configured to support the steering motor.

  • Publication number: 20200064841
    Abstract: A general-purpose robotics platform that can be modularly inter-connected with other platforms to create composite platforms capable of carrying larger payloads, performing more tasks, and travelling longer distances. The modular platforms can carry different payloads to service different robotics applications. A modular autonomous platform includes a mobility module and a base module. The mobility module includes a drive system and is configured to move the modular autonomous platform. The base module is attached to the mobility module and includes an interface configured to receive a payload and an interface configured to couple with another modular autonomous platform.
