  • Patent number: 10423156
    Abstract: A system, device, and method for controlling a remotely-controlled device are disclosed. The remotely-controlled device control system could include one or more remotely-controlled devices; a controller comprised of a data collection module, at least one active module, at least one module description file (MDF), a robot description file (RDF) for each remotely-controlled device, and a processing unit (PU); at least one data source, and a marketplace. The PU may be configured to receive at least one active module; receive, for each received active module, input data of its associated MDF provided by the data collection module; generate, for each received active module, output data as a function of to the input data received by the processing unit, and provide the output data to a destination system.

  • Publication number: 20180129219
    Abstract: A system, device, and method for moving an autonomous vehicle (AV) are disclosed. The AV moving system could include the AV configured with one or more image capturing devices, and a processing unit (PU). The PU may be configured to receive input data representative of one or more selections of one or more predefined operational modes; receive image data representative of an image of one or more objects located in a scene outside of the AV; receive input data representative of a selection of an object; track the image of the selected object as a function of a visual tracking algorithm; generate output data as a function of the selection(s) of the predefined operational modes and the tracking of the image of the selected object; and send the output data to the AV via the datalink.
