    Abstract: Provided is a sensing system useful with a follower vehicle configured to track and follow a leader. The sensing system can include a plurality of sensing technologies configured to cooperatively track and follow the leader. In some embodiments, the plurality of sensing technologies can include one or more of a stereoscopic camera ranging system, a wide field of view monocular camera, and a radar imaging system, or other sensor technologies. In various embodiments, the vehicle can comprise a chassis, a drive mechanism supported by the chassis and arranged to drive a plurality of wheels, a body supported by the chassis and, optionally, an internal volume defined within the body. In some embodiments, the follower vehicle can be a two-wheeled mobile carrier, for example.

    Abstract: A linkage-based shifting assembly comprises first and second arms, having a first wheel rotatably coupled to a proximal end of the first arm and a second wheel rotatably coupled to a proximal end of the second arm. A shifting assembly is configured to couple to a chassis, wherein the shifting assembly is coupled to distal ends of the first and second arms and configured to cause a relative shifting motion between the chassis and the first and second wheels. The linkage-based shifting assembly can form part of a vehicle. The vehicle can be a two-wheeled vehicle. The vehicle can be a mobile carrier. The mobile carrier can be a two-wheeled vehicle.
