摘要: A robot uses controlled omni-wheels and an arm assembly coupled to a gripper to facilitate the opening of doors. The gripper is rotatable around at least one of its axis to engage and rotate a door handle to unlatch a door. The omni-wheels are driven to move the robot along a carved path to open the door.

摘要: A security robot comprises a mobile base module with a head module supported in a raised position centrally above the mobile base. The head module includes an upwardly opening cavity interior thereto that receives an inter-changeable payload bucket unit. The inter-changeable payload bucket has a displaceable cap member movable between a closed position and an elevated position. The cap member in the closed position closes an upper surface of the payload bucket and conceals any payload enclosed therein. The cap member in the elevated position is positioned above and allows top access to any payload located in the payload bucket unit. Preferably, the mobile base is provided with a holonomic drive arrangement. An elevating platform can also be associated with the cap member and can support sensors and/or conflict devices. The ability to easily alter the payload increases the possible applications and/or allows for multipurpose applications.

摘要: A telepresence robot uses three separately controlled omni-wheels and a computer processing arrangement to reposition the robot based on received positional signals. The telepresence robot captures and transmits visual information of a limited field of view and visual information of a broad field of view. The visual information is received and displayed on a remote input device and portions of the displayed information are selected to send an appropriate signal to reposition the robot based on the selected portion. A method of remotely controlling a telepresence robot is also disclosed.

摘要: A robot uses controlled omni-wheels and an arm assembly coupled to a gripper to facilitate the opening of doors. The gripper is rotatable around at least one of its axis to engage and rotate a door handle to unlatch a door. The omni-wheels are driven to move the robot along a curved path to open the door.

摘要: The improved mobile robot utilizes a cooperative wheeled support arrangement having a unique axle design that preferably cooperates with a base support module. A tri-axle is preferably used to support at least one omni-wheel on each axle section. Multiple omni-wheels on each section can be used for higher load appications. The tri-axle is of a fixed design and each wheel pivots on the individual axle section. Preferably, the axle sections are welded to each other.

摘要: The present system and method provides for a new digital media paradigm enabling tight choreography of motion, content and, time able to be presented on a variety of hardware platforms consisting of robotic control of a multiplicity of display screens in the form of a movable array of 2 or more LCDs, LEDs, OLEDs, etc., with the movement and placement of each display achieved by one multi-axis manipulator arm mechanism. Motion control is achieved through software programmed onto one or more controller systems, and the corresponding tools necessary for creative visual designers to produce content meeting this new paradigm are also proposed. Each arm/display screen combination is kept aware of its positioning in physical space, relative to the positioning of each and every other arm/display screen at all times, in order to prevent collisions. The pre-programmed software control takes the form of a choreographed playlist of movements, content, and time that match the desired positioning of the array of display screens, in order to achieve the desired dynamic presentation of custom-produced digital content that will be presented across the array, in a fully coordinated fashion.

摘要: A modified delta linkage robot uses a reverse orientation arm linkage that includes an inwardly direct lower arm. This reverse arm orientation provides a number of advantages with respect to access over an extending surface such as may occur in a home, office or other environments shared with people. The delta linkage may also have application in certain factory environments, particularly when combined with an omni wheeled base. The linkage and the preferred linkage and omni wheeled base provide a stable movable platform. In addition this combination can advantageously include a number of sensors to take active steps to discourage and/or reduce the effect of sudden forces applied thereto.

摘要: A mobile robot with one or more deployable scanning wands that advantageously mounts each scanning wand for movement from a storage position in or adjacent to a wall of the mobile base unit to a deployed position extending outwardly from the robot adjacent ground level. Preferably, the robot includes two or more deployable scanning wands and a holonomic drive function is provided in the mobile base unit. This drive allows controlled linear and rotational movement of the robot to provide an effective scan area. Sensors can be provided in the sides of the mobile base for assistance in control of the drive and/or further scanning of a vehicle, trailer or object of interest.
