MOVING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18525853 titled 'MOVING DEVICE
The patent application describes a moving device with multiple movement mechanisms, a sound collecting portion, a controller, and an air circulation device for cooling the controller.
- The device has a main body with various movement mechanisms.
- It includes a sound collecting portion to gather peripheral sounds.
- A controller manages the movement mechanisms and the sound collecting portion.
- An air circulation device cools the controller by circulating air towards it.
- If the sound collected exceeds a certain level, the controller stops the air circulation device.
Potential Applications: - Surveillance systems - Robotics - Home automation
Problems Solved: - Overheating of controllers in moving devices - Efficient sound collection in noisy environments
Benefits: - Improved performance and longevity of the device - Enhanced sound collection capabilities
Commercial Applications: Title: "Innovative Moving Device for Enhanced Sound Collection" This technology can be utilized in security systems, automated guided vehicles, and smart home devices, enhancing their functionality and reliability.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the air circulation device contribute to the overall performance of the moving device?
The air circulation device helps in cooling the controller, preventing overheating and ensuring optimal functioning of the device.
2. What are the potential drawbacks of the sound collecting portion in noisy environments?
In extremely noisy environments, the sound collecting portion may struggle to differentiate between relevant sounds and background noise.
Original Abstract Submitted
A moving device includes: a main body portion that includes a plurality of movement mechanisms; a sound collecting portion that is provided at the main body portion and that is configured to collect peripheral sounds; a controller that is configured to control the plurality of movement mechanisms and the sound collecting portion; an air circulation device that cools the controller by circulating air toward the controller, wherein, in a case in which noise in sound collected by the sound collecting portion is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, the controller is configured to stop the air circulation device.
