Sensor Retrofit To Autonomously Actuate An Excavation Vehicle

View page
US Patent:
20220290404, Sep 15, 2022
Filed:
May 31, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/829034
Inventors:
- San Francisco CA, US
Andrew Xiao Liang - San Francisco CA, US
Christian John Wawrzonek - San Francisco CA, US
Gaurav Jitendra Kikani - San Francisco CA, US
James Alan Emerick - Berkeley CA, US
Lucas Allen Bruder - San Francisco CA, US
Ammar Idris Kothari - San Francisco CA, US
International Classification:
E02F 9/20
E02F 3/43
Abstract:
An excavation vehicle capable of autonomously actuating an excavation tool or navigating an excavation vehicle to perform an excavation routine within an excavation site is described herein. Sensors mounted to the excavation vehicle and the excavation tool produce signals representative of a position and orientation of the corresponding joint relative on the excavation vehicle relative to the excavation site, a position and orientation of the excavation vehicle relative to the excavation site, and one or more features of the excavation site based on the position of the excavation vehicle within the excavation site. A set of solenoids are configured to couple to corresponding hydraulic valves of the excavation tool to actuate the valve. A controller produces actuating signals to control the joints of the excavation tool to autonomously perform the excavation routine based on the signals produced by the sensors.

US Patent:
20220364321, Nov 17, 2022
Filed:
Jul 27, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/875233
Inventors:
- San Francisco CA, US
Andrew Xiao Liang - San Francisco CA, US
Linus Page Chou - San Francisco CA, US
Edward Stephen Walker - San Francisco CA, US
Christian John Wawrzonek - San Francisco CA, US
International Classification:
E02F 3/43

G05D 1/00
G05D 1/02
G06T 17/05
G06V 20/56
E02F 9/20
Abstract:
This description provides an autonomous or semi-autonomous excavation vehicle that is capable of navigating through a dig site and carrying out an excavation routine using a system of sensors physically mounted to the excavation vehicle. The sensors collects any one or more of spatial, imaging, measurement, and location data representing the status of the excavation vehicle and its surrounding environment. Based on the collected data, the excavation vehicle executes instructions to carry out an excavation routine. The excavation vehicle is also able to carry out numerous other tasks, such as checking the volume of excavated earth in an excavation tool, and helping prepare a digital terrain model of the site as part of a process for creating the excavation routine.

US Patent:
20210072760, Mar 11, 2021
Filed:
Nov 18, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/952061
Inventors:
- San Francisco CA, US
Andrew Xiao Liang - San Francisco CA, US
Christian John Wawrzonek - San Francisco CA, US
Gaurav Jitendra Kikani - Sugar Land CA, US
International Classification:
G05D 1/02
G01C 21/20
Abstract:
This description provides an autonomous or semi-autonomous excavation vehicle that is capable determining a route between a start point and an end point in a site and navigating over the route. The sensors collect any or more of spatial, imaging, measurement, and location data to detect an obstacle between two locations within the site. Based on the collected data and identified obstacles, the excavation vehicle generates unobstructed routes circumventing the obstacles, obstructed routes traveling through the obstacles, and instructions for removing certain modifiable obstacles. The excavation vehicle determines and selects the shortest route of the unobstructed and obstructed route and navigates over the selected path to move within the site.
