Abstract: A user control device for a transporter. The user control device can communicate with the transporter via electrical interface(s) that can facilitate communication and data processing among the user interface device and controllers that can control the movement of the transporter. The user control device can perform automated actions based on the environment in which the transporter operates and the user's desired movement of the transporter. External applications can enable monitoring and control of the transporter.

Abstract: A mobile extraction assembly includes a sled with a tow line secured to a front end of the sled. The mobile extraction assembly also includes a cart including a frame, a winch, and a pulley. The frame defines a track for receiving and supporting the sled. The winch is mounted to the frame underneath the track. The pulley is vertically disposed in line with or above the track, where the tow line is secured to the winch and routed around the pulley between the winch and the sled. This allows retraction of the tow line by the winch to draw the sled to the cart and onto the track of the cart in a direction towards the pulley.

Abstract: A delivery autonomous ground vehicle includes several drainage features to keep water away from the package to be delivered and sensitive components. The cargo bay includes dimples to raise the package from the floor of the bay and a drain. Enclosed drain pans beneath elements of the lid also include drains. Water entering from the cooling air inlet holes of discharge holes can drain back through the holes or through the main drain. Overlapping panels inhibit water ingress, but if provided without seals, the water ingress between overlapping panels flows to the main drain.

Abstract: A two-wheel, self-balancing personal vehicle having independently movable foot placement sections. The foot placement sections have an associated wheel, sensor and motor and are independently self-balancing which gives the user independent control over the movement of each platform section by the magnitude and direction of tilt a user induces in a given platform section. Various embodiments are disclosed including those with a continuous housing, discrete platform sections and/or tapering platform sections.
