  • Systems, apparatuses, and methods for dynamic filtering of high intensity broadband electromagnetic waves from image data from a sensor coupled to a robot
    Patent number: 11865731
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for dynamic filtering of high intensity broadband electromagnetic waves in image data from a sensor of a robot are disclosed herein. According to at least one non-limiting exemplary embodiment, sunlight or light emitted from nearby fluorescent lamps may cause a robot to generate false positives of objects nearby the robot as the light may be of high intensity and large bandwidth. These false positives may cause a robot to get stuck or navigate without use of a camera sensor, which may be unsafe.
    Type: Grant
