Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for controlling a telepresence robot, sometimes referred to as a receiver. The systems and methods may include obtaining environmental data associated with the receiver and/or an operator of the telepresence robot, sometimes referred to as a sender. A model defining a human intent may be received and an intent of a human proximate the receiver and or the sender may be determined using the model. A first signal may be transmitted to the receiver. The first signal may be operative to cause the receiver to alter a first behavior based on the intent of the human and/or the sender.
Claims23
A system for controlling a receiver, the system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations that:
- obtain, from the receiver, environmental data associated with the receiver, wherein the environmental data includes spatial data,
- receive, from a database, a model defining a human intent,
- determine an intent of a human associated with the receiver using the model,
- generate two or more routings based on a two-dimensional mapping of a space associated with the spatial data,
- transmit the two or more routings to the human,
- receive a selection of one of the two or more routings from the human, and
- transmit a first signal to the receiver, wherein the first signal is operative to cause the receiver to alter a first behavior based on the intent of the human, and wherein the first signal is operative to redirect the receiver along the one of the two or more routings received from the human.
At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing device, cause the at least one processor to perform operations that:
- obtain, from a receiver, environmental data associated with the receiver, wherein the environmental data includes spatial data;
- obtain, from a database, a model defining a human intent;
- determine, by the computing device, an intent of a human associated with the receiver using the model,
- generate two or more routings based on a two-dimensional mapping of a space associated with the spatial data;
- transmit the two or more routings to the human;
- receive a selection of one of the two or more routings from the human;
- and
- transmit, by the computing device, a first signal to the receiver, wherein the first signal is operative to cause the receiver to alter a first behavior based on the intent of the human, and wherein the first signal is operative to redirect the receiver along the one of the two or more routings received from the human.
A system for controlling a receiver by a human, the system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations that:
- obtain, from the human, environmental data associated with the receiver, wherein the environmental data includes spatial data;
- obtain, from a database, a model defining a human intent;
- determine an intent of the human associated with the receiver using the model;
- generate two or more routings based on a two-dimensional mapping of a space associated with the spatial data;
- transmit the two or more routings to the human;
- receive a selection of one of the two or more routings from the human;
- and
- transmit a first signal to the receiver, wherein the first signal is operative to cause the receiver to alter a first behavior based on the intent of the human, and wherein the first signal is operative to redirect the receiver along the one of the two or more routings received from the human.
At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing device, cause the at least one processor to perform operations that:
- obtain, from a human, environmental data associated with a receiver, wherein the environmental data includes spatial data;
- obtain, from a database, a first model defining a human intent;
- determine, by the computing device, an intent of the human, associated with the receiver, using the first model;
- generate two or more routings based on a two-dimensional mapping of a space associated with the spatial data;
- transmit the two or more routings to the human;
- obtain a selection of one of the two or more routings from the human;
- and
- cause the computing device to transmit a first signal to the receiver, wherein the first signal is operative to cause the receiver to alter a first behavior based on the intent of the human, and wherein the first signal is operative to redirect the receiver along the one of the two or more routings received from the human.
