  • Publication number: 20240094028
    Abstract: A mobile robot map construction method and apparatus, and a computer device and a storage medium. The mobile robot map construction method comprises: acquiring the number of floors and current floor information (S202); acquiring point cloud data of an environment around the current location by means of a laser radar, acquiring image data of the environment around the current location by means of a camera, and constructing an environment map according to the point cloud data and the image data and labeling a glass location (S204); determining whether there is an area to be detected in the environment map, and if there is an area to be detected, detecting said area according to a pre-set rule (S206); and if there is no area to be detected, moving to the nearest elevator in an obstacle avoidance mode according to an elevator location marked on the environment map, and taking the elevator to an undetected floor until environment map construction of all undetected floors is completed (S208).

  • Publication number: 20230144932
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to display assemblies, display apparatuses, and fingerprint recognition methods. One example display assembly includes a display panel and a fingerprint recognition module located on a light-emitting surface of the display panel. The fingerprint recognition module includes multiple fingerprint recognition units. Each fingerprint recognition unit includes at least one phototransistor and one switch transistor. The phototransistor includes a first active layer, a first gate, a first source, and a first drain. A material for making the first active layer includes an organic semiconductor material. The first drain and the first gate partially overlap to form a first capacitor. The switch transistor includes a second active layer, a second gate, a second source, and a second drain. The fingerprint recognition module includes a first metal layer. The first source, the first drain, the second source, and the second drain are all located at the first metal layer.

  • Publication number: 20230147182
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to display assemblies, display apparatus, and driving methods. One example display assembly includes a display panel and a function module located on a light-emitting surface of the display panel. A function unit in the function module includes at least one phototransistor and one switch transistor. The phototransistor includes a first active layer, a first gate, a first source, and a first drain. A material for making the first active layer includes an organic semiconductor material. The first active layer is located on a side of the first gate away from the display panel. The first drain and the first gate partially overlap to form a first capacitor. The switch transistor includes a second active layer, a second gate, a second source, and a second drain. The function unit includes a transparent electrode located on the first active layer and overlapping the first active layer.

  • Patent number: 8279086
    Abstract: A method and system are provided for determining travel time through intersections by assigning an initial position for a virtual probe in the intersection and updating the position and velocity for the virtual probe such that the position and velocity of the virtual probe are determined multiple times from a time when the virtual probe is at an initial position until the time when the updated position of the virtual probe is past a stop line at the intersection. Updating the position and velocity of the virtual probe involves retrieving vehicle detection data and traffic control signal data to determine a distance from the virtual probe to the closer of a stop line and a vehicle in a queue in front of the virtual probe. The length of the queue is determined using the intersection of two shockwaves.
