MOBILE ROBOT AND CONTROL METHOD OF MOBILE ROBOT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240118700 titled 'MOBILE ROBOT AND CONTROL METHOD OF MOBILE ROBOT
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a terminal apparatus that includes a camera, a display showing a screen with a mobile robot, and a control circuit. The control circuit acquires a planned route for the robot, displays it on the screen along with a camera image, detects a contact point on the screen, generates a new route through that point, and sends it to the robot.
- Camera, display, and control circuit are key components of the terminal apparatus.
- The control circuit acquires and modifies planned routes for the mobile robot.
- The display shows the planned route superimposed on a camera image.
- The contact point on the display is used to generate a new route for the robot.
- The new route is then transmitted to the mobile robot.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries such as logistics, security, and manufacturing for autonomous navigation and control of robots.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently modifying planned routes for mobile robots based on real-time feedback and user interaction.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved flexibility in robot navigation, enhanced user control, and increased efficiency in task execution.
Potential Commercial Applications
Potential commercial applications of this technology include warehouse automation, surveillance systems, and robotic assistance in healthcare settings.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be systems that use cameras and displays for robot navigation, but the specific method of modifying planned routes through user interaction on the display may be novel.
Unanswered Questions
How does the control circuit detect the contact point on the display?
The abstract does not provide details on the specific technology or method used for detecting the contact point on the display.
What types of mobile robots can be used with this terminal apparatus?
The abstract does not specify the compatibility of the terminal apparatus with different types or models of mobile robots.
Original Abstract Submitted
a terminal apparatus includes a camera, a display that displays a display screen including a mobile robot that autonomously travels, and a control circuit. the control circuit acquires a first planned route of the mobile robot, displays, on the display, a screen having the first planned route superimposed on a camera image taken by the camera, detects a contact point on the display on which the screen is displayed, generates a second planned route of the mobile robot that travels through the contact point, and transmits the second planned route to the mobile robot.
