CONTROL DEVICE AND ROVER EQUIPPED THEREWITH, CONTROL METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM RECORDED WITH PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18340939 titled 'CONTROL DEVICE AND ROVER EQUIPPED THEREWITH, CONTROL METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM RECORDED WITH PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a control device for a rover that reduces the effect of radiation on the rover. Here are the key points:

  • The control device has a computation section that calculates information about the impact of radiation on the rover.
  • This computation is based on error information from a processing device provided to the rover.
  • The control device also includes a control section that takes action to minimize the impact of radiation on the rover.
  • The control section uses the computed information about the effect of radiation to guide its control actions.

Potential Applications:

  • Space exploration: This technology can be used in rovers or robots deployed in space missions to mitigate the effects of radiation on their performance.
  • Nuclear power plants: The control device can be employed in robots or automated systems used in nuclear power plants to protect them from radiation and ensure their proper functioning.

Problems Solved:

  • Radiation impact: The technology addresses the problem of radiation affecting the performance and functionality of rovers or robots by actively reducing its effects.
  • Error correction: By using error information from a processing device, the control device can accurately compute the impact of radiation and take appropriate control actions.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced rover performance: By reducing the impact of radiation, the control device improves the overall performance and reliability of rovers or robots.
  • Increased safety: The technology ensures the safety of rovers or robots operating in radiation-prone environments, such as space or nuclear power plants.


Original Abstract Submitted

A control device includes a computation section that computes information related to an effect of radiation received by a rover based on error information of a processing device provided to the rover, and a control section that performs control so as to reduce the effect of radiation received by the rover based on the information related to an effect of radiation computed by the computation section.
