MOVING BODY, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18263347 titled 'MOVING BODY, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a moving body (such as a robot) that has a space recognition processor and an operation controller.

  • The space recognition processor generates odometry information and map information of the moving body.
  • The operation controller generates position and orientation information of the moving body based on the odometry information.
  • In case of an abnormality, the operation controller causes the moving body to perform autonomous movement based on the position and orientation information.
  • The operation controller controls the normal operation of the moving body based on a control instruction generated by an application processor, using the position and orientation information and the map information.


Original Abstract Submitted

A moving body (MB) includes a space recognition processor (VP) and an operation controller (FC). The space recognition processor (VP) generates odometry information (SPI) and map information (MI) of the moving body (MB). The operation controller (FC) generates position and orientation information (PI) of the moving body (MB) based on the odometry information (SPI). The operation controller (FC) causes the moving body (MB) to perform autonomous movement based on the position and orientation information (PI) at an abnormal time when an abnormality occurs in the moving body (MB). The operation controller (FC) controls the operation of the moving body (MB) according to a control instruction generated by an application processor (AP) based on the position and orientation information (PI) and the map information (MI) at a normal time when the moving body (MB) operates normally.
