Abstract: Systems and techniques performing autonomous navigation are illustrated. One embodiment includes a method for navigation. The method inputs a set of sensor data obtained from a plurality of sensors into at least one convolutional neural network (CNN). The at least one CNN generates a plurality of key-value pairs where each the key-value pair corresponds to an individual sensor from the plurality of sensors; and a value included in the key-value pair is determined based upon a subset of sensor data obtained from the individual sensor. The method inputs at least one navigation query and the plurality of key-value pairs into a Cross-Attention Transformer (CAT). The method obtains, from the CAT, a set of weighted sums, wherein each weighted sum corresponds to: a certain key-value pair; and a certain sensor from the plurality of sensors. The method updates a model depicting a 3D environment based on the set of weighted sums.

Abstract: A trencher has two wheels equidistant on either side of the arbor, and a third steerable wheel at the front of the trencher in line with the arbor. Speed of the arbor, forward motion of the trencher and the direction of motion are determined by motors controlled by an onboard control system. The onboard control system is controlled by a remote control, which may be a simple manual wireless controller or a programmable computer. With a programmable computer, the trencher can be pre-programmed to dig along a pre-selected path, e.g., a logo, flower or other design.
