Application: Controlling a robot to remedy a problem (Patent ID: US20230390922A1)
The patent filed by Northrop Grumman Corp describes a system for controlling robot operations using a robot intelligence engine that analyzes highly immersive virtual environment (HIVE) data and sensor data from a problem-detecting robot to identify and simulate robot tasks that can potentially remedy detected problems. The system then selects and assigns these tasks to deployed robots based on factors like proximity to the problem, suitability, and criticality. The system can prioritize tasks, involve multiple robots in task execution, and provide feedback to improve task execution in the HIVE.
The system outlined in the patent utilizes a robot intelligence engine to process data from HIVE and problem-detecting robots to identify, simulate, and assign tasks to deployed robots for problem resolution. The system can adapt to extraterrestrial environments, prioritize tasks based on criticality, and select deployed robots based on proximity and suitability. Additionally, the system can involve multiple robots in executing tasks and provide feedback to enhance task execution efficiency within the HIVE environment.
