| 20120123614 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VIRTUALIZING INDUSTRIAL VEHICLES TO AUTOMATE TASK EXECUTION IN A PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT - A method and apparatus for virtualizing industrial vehicles to automate task execution in a physical environment is described. In one embodiment, the method includes determining input parameters for controlling vehicle hardware components, wherein the vehicle hardware components comprise actuators that are used to control hardware component operations, generating mappings between the input parameters and the hardware component operations, wherein each of the input parameters is applied to an actuator to perform an corresponding hardware component operation, correlating the mappings with vehicle commands to produce abstraction information and executing at least one task comprising various ones of the vehicle commands using the abstraction information. | 05-17-2012 |
| 20110218670 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SENSING OBJECT LOAD ENGAGEMENT, TRANSPORTATION AND DISENGAGEMENT BY AUTOMATED VEHICLES - A method and apparatus for sensing object load engagement, transportation and disengagement by automated vehicles is described. In one embodiment, the method includes processing data that is transmitted from a sensor array comprising at least one device for analyzing a plurality of objects that are placed throughout a physical environment, executing an object recognition process on the sensor array data using model information to identify at least one object, determining orientation information associated with the at least one object, wherein the orientation information is relative to the lift carriage and positioning at least one lifting element based on the orientation information. | 09-08-2011 |
