Abstract
A system and method for providing precise navigation for a motorized mobile system (MMS) in data deprived environments, the system comprising at least one camera that is operably configured to generate one or more of an image of objects in a field-of-view of the sensors, wherein the object is identified and used to enhance navigation or operation of the MMS.
Claims29
A motorized mobile system comprising:
- an optical sensor capturing an image of a fiducial located proximate to the motorized mobile system, the fiducial located within a field of view of the optical sensor;
- a tangible storage medium storing instructions and one or more identifiers associated with one or more fiducials;
- and
- a processor executing the instructions to:
- generate, based on the captured image of the fiducial, a data report of the captured image of the fiducial;
- verify the fiducial with the stored one or more identifiers associated with one or more fiducials, the one or more identifiers identifying the fiducial as associated with a location within a vehicle;
- and
- alter one or more operating modes of the motorized mobile system in response to verifying the fiducial with the one or more identifiers to navigate the motorized mobile system to the location within the vehicle.

A method for controlling a motorized mobile system comprising:
- generating, by a processor of the motorized mobile system and based on an image of a fiducial located proximate to the motorized mobile system captured by an optical sensor, a data report of the captured image of the fiducial, the fiducial located within a field of view of the optical sensor;
- comparing a portion of the image of the fiducial to one or more identifiers associated with one or more fiducials;
- verifying the fiducial corresponds to an identifier of the one or more identifiers identifying the fiducial as associated with a location within a vehicle;
- determining a relative location within a vehicle from the data report;
- and
- altering one or more operating modes of the motorized mobile system to navigate the motorized mobile system to the determined location within the vehicle.
