Abstract: An apparatus for directing a connection element is provided. The apparatus includes a robotic element for manipulating the connection element and a computer vision system communicatively coupled to the robotic element. The computer vision system includes one or more processors configured to: receive a first frame representing an environment at a first time, the environment at the first time comprising marker light of a first mode and other light; receive a second frame of the environment at a second time, the environment at the second time comprising marker light of a second mode and the other light; compare the first frame to the second frame to determine a difference in lighting in the environment between the first time and the second time; and differentiate the marker light of the first mode and the marker light of the second mode from the other light based on the determined difference.

Abstract: A positioning system for an automatic vehicle charging system includes charger-side positioning modules arranged on a charger and a charger-side control unit. The charger-side positioning modules comprise a static master module and at least two slave modules connected to the static master module. The charger-side control unit is connected to the static master module. The static master module receives a charging request from a vehicle and distances to a mobile module to determine a position of the mobile module using the measured distances, and to the position of the mobile module to the charger-side control unit to provide the allowance for charging when the position of the mobile module is within a pre-defined tolerance.

Abstract: In one aspect, a cross-connect cable for charging an electric vehicle (EV) is provided. The cross-connect cable comprises wiring, first and second charging plugs, a sensor, and a controller. The wiring comprises power conductors and communication lines. The first and second charging plugs are electrically coupled to opposite ends of the wiring. The sensor is configured to measure a voltage of, and a current carried by, the power conductors. The controller is configured to determine whether the first and second charging plugs have been electrically connected to first charging port of a power source and a second charging port of the EV, respectively. The controller is further configured to initiate a charging session from the power source to the EV, and calculate, based the voltage and the current, energy delivered from the power source to the EV for the charging session.
