    'Automatic Exposure Metering For Regions Of Interest That Tracks Moving Subjects Using Artificial Intelligence' in Patent Application Approval Process (USPTO 20230419505)

    90-92页
    查看更多>>摘要:The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background information supplied bythe inventors: “Conventional Automatic Exposure (AE) metering techniques use a static metering weighttable. For example, conventional AE metering techniques include spot metering, center metering, averagemetering, and custom metering (i.e., metering customized by an end user). The static metering weighttable used in conventional AE metering is implemented by a predefined table selected from the variousmetering models. The selected model for the static metering table is used for a luma calculation. Thecalculated luma value from the static metering table represents the current luminance of the image. Thecurrent luminance of the image is used by a 3A technique to determine how the AE is going to be changed.

    Patent Issued for Robot for tightening a series of bolt nuts on a vehicle chassis and manufacturing process (USPTO 11851122)

    92-94页
    查看更多>>摘要:From the background information supplied by the inventors, news correspondents obtained the followingquote: “In known manner, bolts are widely used in the manufacturing processes of vehicles to attachbrackets or the like to the vehicle chassis. In the example of a truck, the chassis is constituted of twolongitudinal beams, provided with a plurality of holes for receiving the bolts.“Today, operators are needed to manually tighten the bolts nuts. In the future, this operation could bedone by a robot. However, it is known that a reaction torque can be observed at the end of the tighteningprocess. Indeed, the assembly is mechanically stressed during the tightening operation, and is subject toelastic deformation. At the end of the tightening operation, the components of the assembly tend to returnto their initial shape, which creates a reaction torque. Therefore, in order to automatize this operation, therobot must be designed so that its wrist (terminal axis) is capable of withstanding the reaction torque overa long period of time (reliability, durability). Today, M14 Hexagonal Bolts represent 80% of the fastenersthat are used on the chassis trucks. For the record, this kind of bolts requires a tightening torque that isabout 175 N·m. Accordingly, the reaction torque value must not exceed the maximum value tolerated bythe robot terminal axis.

    Patent Issued for Robotic leg (USPTO 11850738)

    94-96页
    查看更多>>摘要:The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background information supplied bythe inventors: “Robots currently perform tasks in various working environments, such as factories, storagefacilities, office buildings, and hospitals. Moreover, robots are sometimes designed with large stationary ormoveable bases that allow the robot to maintain an upright position while performing tasks that involvelifting and handling heavy objects without tipping over. The bases, however, tend to be heavy, large, slow,and cumbersome, severely limiting mobility and being inappropriate for use in areas with tight footprints.While other robots with smaller and lighter bases or mobility platforms are more maneuverable than therobots with large bases, they are typically not practical for carrying heavy objects due to instabilitiesresulting from shifts in center of mass and changes in momentum as the objects are picked up and putdown.”

    Patent Issued for Trapdoor rejection subsystem for a conveyor system (USPTO 11851293)

    96-100页
    查看更多>>摘要:From the background information supplied by the inventors, news correspondents obtained the followingquote: “The present invention relates to the handling of parcels within a sorting or similar facility. Inparticular, the present invention relates to a trapdoor rejection subsystem which can be used in a conveyorsystem to selectively reject and redirect parcels.“In a sorting facility for parcels, various parcels are unloaded from trucks or other vehicles at unloadinglocations, sorted, and then loaded onto trucks or other vehicles at loading locations for delivery to theintended recipients. Thus, within the sorting facility, there is often a complex system of conveyors andequipment that facilitates transport and sorting of the parcels within the facility. One such piece of equipmentuseful for sorting the various parcels is a robot singulator, including a robotic framework (comprisedof one or more arms) and an end effector, such as a vacuum-based end effector, that is mounted to thedistal end of the robotic framework and configured to engage parcels. In this regard, a number of differentrobot singulators exist in the art, such as those disclosed in commonly assigned U.S. Pat. Nos. 10,646,898and 10,994,309, which are incorporated herein by reference.
