The most common of these devices are APCs, which often are either hydraulic or robotic in type.Hydraulic cleaner s vary water flow for movement, while robotic cleaners typically employ electric motorsto cause motion. Hydraulic APCs, furthermore, subdivide into “pressure-s ide” and “suction-side” cleaners,with pressure-side cleaners being fluidly conn ected to outputs of pumps of pool water circulation systemsand suction-side cle aners being fluidly connected to inputs of such pumps. International Patent Application Publication No. WO 2020/041075 of Newman, et al., whose contents are inc orporated herein intheir entirety by this reference, describes mapping and trac king methods and systems for use in connectionwith pools and spas. Included as part of these systems may be an apparatus for light detection and ranging(“LIDA R”) having a rotating sensor. The sensor projects above the waterline of a pool “so as to send laserlight through air, rather than water,” and the apparatus ma y be tethered to an APC travelling within thepool. In use, the sensor “collects data as it scans the walls forming the perimeter of a pool at and abovethe wat erline.””

But in crowd sourced systems that rely on voluntary cooperation, outcomes may depen d on dynamic interactions between cooperation and crowd wisdom. Minimizing social influences then bears the cost of compromising crowd wisdom. More importantly, minimizing socialinfluences may interfere with efforts to perpetuate cooperati on.

U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2021/0032888 of Lancry, et al. (“Lancry”), whoseentire contents are incorporated herein by this reference, details an exemplary robotic pool cleaner usefulto clean water of an illustrat ed swimming pool. In use, a pump on-board the pool cleaner operates todraw pool water into the cleaner, where the water passes through the filter (so as to tra p debris entrainedin the flowing water) before exiting to return to the pool.

Typically, one robotic unit is usedto open a nd close the doors of the vehicles and another robotic unit is used for paint ap plication. Usually,opening and closure of the doors is accomplished by insertin g a tool (e.g., a pin, a paddle, a gripper, etc.)into the window channels in th e doors or via other such comparable engagement. Before the doors areopened, ho wever, the robotic units typically require confirmation that the vehicle door is not only present,but sufficiently engaged by the robotic unit, absent which, m ovement and operation of the robotic unitwill cease.

Environments changeover time, re/entering a given context increases uncertaint y and predicts the need for updating. Thehippocampus (HPC) is key to tracking c ontext change but also navigation relative to moving targets.CA1 ensembles expr essing immediate-early genes (IEGs) are contextually specific, while the amount ofIEG expression correlates with HPC-dependent task demands.
