Pallets are generally flat transport structures that support goods in a stable matter and that are adapted to fit forklifts and/or other devices/machines to move the pallets. Packages of various products can be stacked on top of the pallet s. Warehouses have been designed to permit forklifts to put and pull pallets fro m racks as needed. Forklifts and other sorts of vehicles move through a warehouse and transport pallets and packages. Warehouse management, such as monitoring transportation and storage of packets and packages, may use point cloud technologies which can generate digital models representative of warehouses. A point cloud is a set of data points in space, which may be created by measuring a large number of points on external surfaces of objects or environments.”

ML typically involves two phases, training, which uses a rich set of training data to train a plurality of machine learning models, and inference, which applies the trained machine learning models to actual applications. Each of the two phases poses a distinct set of requirements for its underlying infrastructures. Various infrastructures may be used, e.g., graphics processing unit (GPU), a central processing unit (CPU), a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), etc. Specifically, the training phase focuses on, as a non-limiting example, GPU or ASIC infrastructures that scale with the trained models and retraining frequency, wherein the key objective of the training phase is to achieve high performance and reduce training time. The inference phase, on the other hand, focuses on infrastructures that scale with the applications, user, and data, and the key objective of the inference phase is to achieve energy (e.g., performance per watt) and capital (e.g., return on investment) efficiency.

Thereby, the ma chine tool may be coupled in various ways to the so-called TCP (Tool Center Point) of the manipulator; the manipulator can usually adjust, practically arbitrarily, the position and orientation of the TCP in order to move a machine tool along a trajectory e.g. parallel to a surface of a workpiece. Industrial robots are usually position controlled, which allows precise movement of the TCP along the desired trajectory.

Mobile devices, such a s mobile phones and tablets, present challenges with regard to users touching the touch screen to select and activate a desired function within a graphical user interface of an application. Specifically, mobile device display screens may be limited in size and graphical user interfaces for applications may display numerous activation icons per square inch of the screen. The activation icons for the application may appear quite small on the mobile device display screen. As a result, users may unintentionally select an incorrect icon, which may result in a ctivation of the wrong application or function.”

A squeak or rattle may be an undesirable sound caused by friction between components associated with the vehicle (e.g., a squeak) or a component of the vehicle loosening and contacting another component of the vehicle (e.g., a rattle) .”

For some power lines, these components are oft en disposed very high above the ground, making them difficult to access. One technique for accessing the remote component involves raising a human technician fr om the ground or having the technician scale a neighbouring structure in proximity to the component. This presents inherent hazards for the technician, and often requires that the power line be shut off.

News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Autonomous or robotic floor cleaners can move without the assistance of a user or operator in order to clean a floor surface. For example, the floor cleaner can be configured to sweep dirt (including dust, hair, and other debris) into a collection bin carried on the floor cleaner and/or to sweep dirt using a cloth which collects the dirt. The floor cleaner can move randomly a bout a surface while cleaning the floor surface or use a mapping/navigation system for guided navigation about the surface.”

With 3D chip technologies, multiple heterogeneous silicon wafers can be stacked vertically to form a 3D integrated circuit. The silicon wafers are relatively thin (50-100 mm) such that they can be interconnected by utilizing through-silicon vias (TSVs).
