Robot Management in Populated Areas - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18159650 titled 'Robot Management in Populated Areas
The techniques and systems described in this patent application focus on enabling robot management in populated areas. A robot management system receives a requested route and time from a robot system, then uses a dynamic map with dynamic and temporal information to determine the approval status of the requested route and time. The system can approve the request, approve it with modifications, or disapprove it, generating and sending the appropriate message to the robot system. This system allows municipalities to monitor, manage, and regulate robots to prevent issues such as high robot density along routes, service disruptions, and disturbances to pedestrians and vehicles.
- Robot management system for populated areas
- Dynamic map with temporal information for route approval
- Approval, modification, or disapproval messages sent to robot system
- Prevention of high robot density and disruptions in populated areas
- Efficient monitoring and regulation of robots in various locations
Potential Applications: - Urban transportation management - Delivery services optimization - Security patrol coordination
Problems Solved: - High robot density in populated areas - Service disruptions due to unregulated robot movement - Safety concerns for pedestrians and vehicles
Benefits: - Improved efficiency in robot management - Enhanced safety for pedestrians and vehicles - Better coordination of robot services in populated areas
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Robot Management System for Populated Areas" This technology can be utilized by municipalities, delivery companies, and security firms to optimize robot operations in crowded locations, improving service quality and safety.
Questions about Robot Management in Populated Areas: 1. How does the dynamic map system help in approving robot routes? The dynamic map system provides real-time information about the area, allowing for efficient route approval based on current conditions.
2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this robot management system in densely populated areas? Implementing this system may face challenges such as integrating with existing infrastructure, ensuring data accuracy, and gaining public acceptance.
Original Abstract Submitted
The techniques and systems herein enable robot management in populated areas. Specifically, a robot management system receives, from a robot system, a requested route and time for the robot system to travel. A dynamic map that includes dynamic and temporal information about an area of the requested route is then used to determine whether the requested route and time are approved, approved with a modified route or time, or disapproved. An approval message, a modified approval message, or a disapproval message is then generated and sent to the robot system. By using the described techniques, municipalities can monitor, manage, and regulate robots across various operators and locations. Doing so may prevent a high density of robots along various routes, disruptions to the services of such robots, and/or disruptions to surrounding pedestrians and vehicles.
