    摘要: A robotic garden tool for use with a boundary wire producing an electromagnetic field, the robotic garden tool including a body, one or more wheels coupled to the body, a working tool coupled to the body, and a first sensor set coupled to the body. Where the first sensor set includes a first sensor configured to detect the orientation and magnitude of the electromagnetic field along a first detection axis, and a second sensor configured to detect the orientation and magnitude of the electromagnetic field along a second detection axis and output a signal representative thereof. The garden tool also including a controller in operable communication with the first sensor set, where the controller is configured to determine the relative location of the boundary wire with respect to the first sensor set based at least in part on the signals output by the first and second sensors.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a method for detecting a physical forbidden zone and global relocating of a service robot, the method comprising: presetting an identification on an edge of the physical forbidden zone that the service robot cannot enter in a working scenario; constantly detecting whether there is an artificial identification in the working scenario during operations of the service robot; identifying the artificial identification and confirming a position and heading angle information of the service robot relative to the artificial identification when there is artificial identification information in the working scenario; controlling a motion trajectory of the service robot according to the position and heading angle information of the service robot relative to the artificial identification to forbid the service robot from entering a respective physical forbidden zone.

    摘要: A vehicle may include a frame structure, a body mounted to the frame structure, and a vehicle navigation system. The vehicle navigation system may include a navigation sensor mounted to the frame structure, and a processor in communication with the navigation sensor. The navigation sensor may be configured to detect reference elements disposed in or on a road on which the vehicle travels. The processor may be configured to receive, from the navigation sensor, signals indicative of a sequence or pattern of detected reference elements. The processor may also be configured to determine, using the received signals, at least one of a position, velocity, or orientation of the vehicle on the road.

    摘要: A method for management of first in, first out stores is provided. The method includes producing parts at a primary process. The parts are processed at a secondary process. A storage region is provided that includes at least one store lane pair including a first store lane and a second store lane. The first store lane includes a pick side, a drop side and a plurality of receiving volumes extending from the pick side to the drop side. The second store lane includes a pick side, a drop side and a plurality of receiving volumes extending from the pick side to the drop side. The receiving volumes of the first store lane are filled with the parts in the order they are produced at the primary process in a first in, first out fashion from the pick side of the first store lane to the drop side of the first store lane using an automated guided vehicle sized and configured to pass through each of the plurality of receiving volumes. After a last receiving volume nearest the drop side of the first store lane is filled, the receiving volumes of the second store lane are filled using the automated guided vehicle.

    摘要: A travel control system for controlling a first travel vehicle which travels on a first travel course toward a junction between the first travel course and a second travel course and a second travel vehicle which travels on the second travel course toward the junction in a travel course network comprising the junction, includes a counter for counting a number of the first travel vehicle which exists in a predetermined junction area comprising the junction, and a travel regulator for stopping the second travel vehicle before the junction area when the counted number of the first travel vehicle is one or more. The travel regulator advances the second travel vehicle into the junction area when the counted number of the first travel vehicle is zero.

    摘要: A travel control system for controlling a travel vehicle to advance from a first travel course toward a predetermined one of a plurality of second travel courses includes a destination information provider providing to the travel vehicle destination information indicating the predetermined one of the plurality of second travel courses before the travel vehicle reaches the junction and a first junction information provider providing to the travel vehicle junction information indicating one of the plurality of second travel courses before the travel vehicle reaches the junction. The travel vehicle obtains the destination information from the destination information provider and the junction information from the first junction information provider before reaching a junction between the first and second travel courses. The travel vehicle collates the destination information with the junction information and advances to the predetermined one of the plurality of second travel courses based on a result of the collation.
