    摘要: Initial interaction between a mobile robot and at least one user is described herein. The mobile robot captures several images of its surroundings, and identifies existence of a user in at least one of the several images. The robot then orients itself to face the user, and outputs an instruction to the user with regard to the orientation of the user with respect to the mobile robot. The mobile robot captures images of the face of the user responsive to detecting that the user has followed the instruction. Information captured by the robot is uploaded to a cloud-storage system, where information is included in a profile of the user and is shareable with others.

    摘要: The subject disclosure is directed towards a robot device including a computational intelligence system that can be coupled to/decoupled from different interchangeable mobility mechanisms at different times. The robot may operate with its intelligence portion detached from the mobility portion, whereby the intelligence portion may be easily to interact therewith out lifting the (typically dirty) mobility mechanism. The robot may operate according to a coupled state, a decoupled state, or in a transition state when being moved for purposes of coupling or decoupling.

    摘要: A performance prediction simulator gives effect to the resource contention among multiple resources in a simulated system by adjusting event durations appropriately. A resource topology tree defining the resource configuration of the system is input to the simulator. The simulator includes an evaluation engine that determines the amount of resource used during each simulation interval of the simulation and records the resource usage in a resource contention timeline, which can be displayed to a user. The amount of resource used during a simulation is also used to adjust the event duration calculations of the hardware models associated with each event.

    摘要: A method and system for generating a communication model are disclosed. The communication model is used to provide performance information on the use of communication networks by application code. The expected utilization of resources is important to when high performance is to be achieved in both cluster computing environments and information power GRIDs.The disclosed method and system is designed to generate a model of an underlying network topology using detailed workload information, which encapsulates the expected computation/communication requirements of an application. Such workload information may be obtained from a number of different sources. Furthermore, the disclosed method provides detailed information of the expected use of a network system unlike traditional communication models that rely on statistical information and provide general performance information.The disclosed method is a hybrid model containing statistical model information as well as steps for simulating the main stages that change the state of the communication network traffic. As such, the evaluation time is orders of magnitude quicker than traditional methods, while providing predictions, which are of reasonable accuracy. The characteristics of different networks can be easily incorporated into the model, and thus the model can be used in a variety of situations. The output of the model is the expected delay of a set of communications, which can be further, expanded into a suitable trace format and visualized for further investigation. In evaluation tests, the disclosed method and system provides predictions which are more accurate than simple regression models while requiring seconds of CPU processing time.

    摘要: There is provided a robot that includes a processor executing instructions that determine a desired image to be displayed. The processor issues control signals corresponding to the desired image to be displayed. The robot also comprises a display assembly including a visual projector, a mirror, and a display surface. The visual projector and mirror are disposed within the robot. The visual projector projects light corresponding to the desired image onto the mirror. The mirror receives the light from the projector, and reflects the light onto the display surface. The display surface receives the light. The image is visible on the display surface from outside the robot.
