US 2026/0219693 A1 · METHOD OF DETERMINING RELIABILITY AMONG PLURALITY OF AUTONOMOUS MOBILE ROBOTS AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING THE SAME

Abstract

A method of coordinating priority among a plurality of autonomous mobile robots and an apparatus for performing the same are disclosed. A method of operating a first delivery robot service provider that manages a first delivery robot includes obtaining, when the first delivery robot meets a second delivery robot in commonly used infrastructure, an identifier of the second delivery robot, obtaining, based on the identifier of the second delivery robot, information of a second delivery robot service provider that manages the second delivery robot, and negotiating, based on the information of the second delivery robot service provider, a priority for use of the commonly used infrastructure between the first delivery robot and the second delivery robot.

Claims18

Dependent claims

A method of operating a first delivery robot, the method comprising:

receiving, when the first delivery robot meets a second delivery robot in commonly used infrastructure, an identifier of the second delivery robot and a first public key corresponding to the identifier from the second delivery robot;
receiving, when the first delivery robot meets a third delivery robot in the commonly used infrastructure, a second public key corresponding to the identifier of the second delivery robot from the third delivery robot;
determining whether the first public key is the same as the second public key;
and
adjusting, based on the determining, a reliability of the second delivery robot.

2 more elements

A first delivery robot comprising:

a processor;
and
a memory configured to store instructions,
wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the first delivery robot to perform a plurality of operations, the plurality of operations comprising:
receiving, when the first delivery robot meets a second delivery robot in commonly used infrastructure, an identifier of the second delivery robot and a first public key corresponding to the identifier from the second delivery robot;
receiving, when the first delivery robot meets a third delivery robot in the commonly used infrastructure, a second public key corresponding to the identifier of the second delivery robot from the third delivery robot;
determining whether the first public key is the same as the second public key;
and
adjusting, based on the determining, a reliability of the second delivery robot.
