By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – According to news reporting originatin g from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx journalists, a patent application by the inve ntor Wang, Guo-zhen (Hsin-chu, Tw), filed on January 22, 2024, was made availabl e online on May 16, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “The most common product of an autonomous robot in the market is a robot cleaner that can automatically clean the floor of a house without bei ng manually operated by a user. A conventional autonomous robot may include a se nsor for detecting obstacles on the floor of the house and can plan a route by r obotics technology in order to navigate around the house. “When the autonomous robot automatically navigates in an area, one of the most i mportant tasks is to avoid obstacles on its navigation path. Various conventiona l sensors can be used in the autonomous robot for detecting the obstacles. For e xample, a light sensor can be used to detect the obstacles by sensing detection lights emitted by a light source when the detection light is reflected by the ob stacle on the navigation path.
