Abstract
The patent’s assignee for patent number 11911916 is Boston Dynamics Inc. (Waltha m, Massachusetts, United States). News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors: “As technology advances, various types of robotic devices a re being created for performing a variety of functions that may assist users. Ro botic devices may be used for applications involving material handling, transpor tation, welding, assembly, and dispensing, among others. Over time, the manner i n which these robotic systems operate is becoming more intelligent, efficient, a nd intuitive. As robotic systems become increasingly prevalent in numerous aspec ts of modern life, it is desirable for robotic systems to be efficient. Therefor e, a demand for efficient robotic systems has helped open up a field of innovati on in actuators, movement, sensing techniques, as well as component design and a ssembly.”
