Abstract
A lift device includes a lift apparatus, a base assembly, and a controller. The lift apparatus is configured to raise and lower a removable robotic implement assembly. The base assembly is configured to support the lift apparatus and a primary mover. The primary mover is configured to provide rotational motion to one or more wheels supported by the base to move the lift apparatus. The controller is in communication with the implement assembly and the lift apparatus. The controller is configured to adjust a position of the robotic implement assembly and the lift apparatus in response to receiving instructions to perform a task.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a lift device, comprising:
- a lift apparatus configured to raise and lower a robotic implement assembly;
- a tractive element configured to be driven to transport the lift device;
- and
- a camera positioned on the lift apparatus and configured to obtain image data;
- processing circuitry operably coupled with the robotic implement assembly and the lift apparatus, wherein the processing circuitry is configured to operate the robotic implement assembly and the lift apparatus;
- and
- a handheld device including a display configured to provide an indication of the image data obtained by the camera, receive a user input from a user, and communicate with the processing circuitry to control at least one of the robotic implement assembly or the lift apparatus.
