Device and Method for Planning Path of Robot - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17811932 titled 'Device and Method for Planning Path of Robot
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an embodiment device for planning a path of a robot using a camera and a controller.
- The device includes a camera that captures an image in the moving direction of the robot.
- A controller is used to detect a moving obstacle in the image and calculate its speed and moving direction based on its change in location.
- The controller then sets a region for the moving obstacle, which is represented as an ellipse, based on its speed and moving direction.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Autonomous robots or vehicles that need to navigate around moving obstacles.
- Industrial automation systems where robots need to avoid collisions with moving objects.
- Surveillance systems that can track and avoid moving obstacles in their field of view.
Problems solved by this technology:
- The device helps in planning a safe path for a robot by detecting and avoiding moving obstacles.
- It improves the efficiency and accuracy of obstacle detection and path planning.
- It reduces the risk of collisions and damage to the robot or its surroundings.
Benefits of this technology:
- Increased safety and reliability in robot navigation.
- Improved efficiency and productivity in industrial automation processes.
- Enhanced situational awareness and surveillance capabilities in security systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
An embodiment device for planning a path of a robot includes a camera configured to capture an image in a moving direction of the robot and a controller configured to detect a moving obstacle in the image in the moving direction of the robot, to calculate a speed and a moving direction of the moving obstacle based on a change in a location of the moving obstacle, and to set a region of the moving obstacle based on the speed and the moving direction of the moving obstacle, the region being in a form of an ellipse.
