By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-From Washington, D.C., NewsRx journalists report that a patent application by the inventors De, Avik (Philadelphia, PA, US); Kenneally, Gavin (Philadelphia, PA, US); Nguyen, Vinh Q. (Philadelphia, PA, US); Topping, Thomas Turner (Philadelphia, PA, US), filed on August 8, 2023, was made available online on February 15, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: "The use of depth information and real-time image information is essential in robotic navigation. In legged robots, these sensors are required to create a representation of the terrain around the robot that is accurate and dense enough to search for footholds. Additionally, the representation needs to be updated without delay as the robot rapidly moves through this environment, since there is usually a short window of time in which a safe foothold is determined.
