    摘要: A robot detects, through a sensor, the location and movement direction of a user and an object near the user, sets a nearby ground area in front at the feet of the user according to the detected location and movement direction of the user, controls an illumination device in the robot to irradiate the nearby ground area with light while driving at least one pair of legs or wheels of the robot to cause the robot to accompany the user, specifies the type and the location of the detected object, and if the object is a dangerous object and is located ahead of the user, controls the illumination device to irradiate a danger area including at least a portion of the dangerous object with light in addition to irradiating the nearby ground area with light.

    摘要: An automated warehouse system can include automated pallet movers, a physical space in which the automated pallet movers operate, and a control system to provide commands to each of the automated pallet movers for operating in the physical space. The commands can include a pallet transportation command including a pallet identifier of a pallet to be transported by the automated pallet mover in the physical space, and a destination location to which the pallet is to be transported by the automated pallet mover. The commands can also include a control algorithm command that specifies a control algorithm for moving through the physical space. The automated pallet mover can be configured to transport the pallet to the destination location according to a route resulting from performance of the control algorithm, while other automated pallet movers concurrently transport other pallets to other destination locations.

    摘要: Systems and methods for providing control in relation to multiple EVs, for example an EV fleet, are provided. A system generates charging control information for EVs based on a receding horizon optimization. The optimization may be based on EV charging goal information related to the EVs including information relating to target charging completion time, and target EV battery state of charge (SoC) information at target charging completion times. The optimization may also be based on prediction information relating to EVs predicted to become available for charging during the optimization horizon. The charging control information may comprise indications of individual EVs to charge during a given time interval during the horizon. The system utilizes various available information as well as predicted data to provide more optimal control to EVs, thereby taking advantage of previously missed opportunities for enhanced optimization.
