ROBOT DEVICE FOR IDENTIFYING MOVEMENT PATH USING RELIABILITY VALUE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18238902 titled 'ROBOT DEVICE FOR IDENTIFYING MOVEMENT PATH USING RELIABILITY VALUE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a robot device and a method of controlling it, where the device includes memory, a sensor to detect the environment, and a processor to execute instructions for mapping the space, determining reliability values of areas in the map, identifying areas meeting certain criteria, and planning movement paths based on the map.

  • The robot device includes memory, a sensor, and a processor.
  • The sensor detects the environment and provides data to the processor.
  • The processor uses the data to create a map of the space and determine reliability values for different areas.
  • The map and reliability values are stored in memory.
  • The processor identifies areas with reliability values meeting a certain threshold.
  • Based on the map and identified areas, the processor plans movement paths for the robot device.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Autonomous navigation for robots in various environments.
  • Efficient mapping and path planning for robotic devices in warehouses, factories, or other complex spaces.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Improves the accuracy and reliability of mapping and navigation for robot devices.
  • Enhances the efficiency of movement planning in dynamic environments.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Increased autonomy and independence for robot devices.
  • Enhanced safety and precision in navigation and movement tasks.
  • Improved productivity and efficiency in various industries utilizing robotic technology.
