According to news reporting originating from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx journalists, a patent application by the inventors Baker, Anthony W. (Gilbertsville, PA, US); Hardy, Willaredt (San Francisco, CA, US), filed on July 26, 2022, was made available online on February 1, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Robotic systems may utilize end effectors to perform tasks on and/or near a surface. For some such robotic systems, it may be desirable to perform tasks in close proximity to the surface while the end effectors move relative to the surface and without physically contacting the surface. Motion of the end effectors relative to the surface may be both physically and kinematically constrained. Physical constrains may be a result of directions of motion and/or ranges of motion that may be accessible to a given robotic system. Kinematic constraints may arise from accelerations and/or velocities that may be accessible to the robotic systems and/or to the end effectors. Both physical and kinematic constraints must be considered when programming robotic systems to perform tasks on and/or near surfaces. Conventional solutions to programming robotic systems to perform tasks on and/or near a surface are computationally intensive and may not be feasible when large and/or complex end effectors are programmed to move near large and/or curvilinear surfaces. Thus, there exists a need for improved methods for selecting a path of a multi-component end effector along a surface, for robots that perform the methods, and for storage media that directs robots to perform the methods.”
