Implementations are disclosed for automatic commissioning, configuring, calibrating, and/or coordinating sensor-equipped modular edge computing devices that are mountable on agricultural vehicles. In various implementations, neighbor modular edge computing device(s) that are mounted on a vehicle nearest a given modular edge computing device may be detected based on sensor signal(s) generated by contactless sensor(s) of the given modular edge computing device. Based on the detected neighbor modular edge computing device(s), an ordinal position of the given modular edge computing device may be determined relative to a plurality of modular edge computing devices mounted on the agricultural vehicle. Based on the sensor signal(s), distance(s) to the neighbor modular edge computing device(s) may be determined. Extrinsic parameters of the given modular edge computing device may be determined based on the ordinal position of the given modular edge computing device and the distance(s).

Automatically determining extrinsic parameters of modular edge computing devices

Implementations are disclosed for adaptively adjusting various parameters of equipment in unpredictable terrain, such as agricultural fields. In various implementations, edge computing device(s) may obtain a first image captured by vision sensor(s) transported across an agricultural field by a vehicle. The first image may depict plant(s) growing in the agricultural area. The edge computing device(s) may process the first image based on a machine learning model to generate agricultural inference(s) about the plant(s) growing in the agricultural area. The edge computing device(s) may determine a quality metric for the agricultural inference(s). While the vehicle continues to travel across the agricultural field, and based on the quality metric: the edge computing device(s) may trigger one or more hardware adjustments to one or more of the vision sensors, or one or more adjustments in an operation of the vehicle.

Examples implementations relate to determining path confidence for a vehicle. An example method includes receiving a request for a vehicle to navigate a target location. The method further includes determining a navigation path for the vehicle to traverse a first segment of the target location based on a plurality of prior navigation paths previously determined for traversal of segments similar to the first segment of the target location. The method also includes determining a confidence level associated with the navigation path. Based on the determined confidence level, the method additionally includes selecting a navigation mode for the vehicle from a plurality of navigation modes corresponding to a plurality of levels of remote assistance. The method further includes causing the vehicle to traverse the first segment of the target location using a level of remote assistance corresponding to the selected navigation mode for the vehicle.

Systems and methods for determining path confidence for unmanned vehicles

A method for analyzing electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is disclosed. Information associated with two or more options is presented to a user. EEG signals from a sensor coupled to the user are received contemporaneously to the user receiving information associated with the two or more options. The EEG signals are processed in real time to determine which one of the options was selected by the user. In response to determining which one of the options was selected by the user, an action from one or more possible actions associated with the information presented to the user is selected. An output associated with the selected action is then generated.

A bioamplifier for analyzing electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is disclosed. The bioamplifier includes an input terminal for receiving an EEG signal from a plurality of sensors coupled to a user. The bioamplifier also includes an analogue-to-digital converter arranged to receive the EEG signal from the input terminal and convert the EEG signal to a digital EEG signal. A data processing apparatus within the bioamplifier is arranged to receive the digital EEG signal from the analogue-to-digital converter and programmed to process, in real time the digital EEG signal using a first machine learning model to generate a cleaned EEG signal having a higher signal-to-noise ratio than the digital EEG signal. The bioamplifier further includes a power source to provide electrical power to the analogue-to-digital converter and the data processing apparatus. The bioamplifier includes a housing that contains the analogue-to-digital converter, the data processing apparatus, the power source, and the sensor input.

A method for obtaining an electroencephalogram (EEG) of a user is disclosed. A reference sensor is attached to the user by connecting a first component of the reference sensor to a second component of the reference sensor, at least a portion of the first component being sub-dermally implanted on or adjacent to a mastoid process of the user. At least one active sensor is attached to the user. A first signal is detected from the reference sensor simultaneously as a second signal is detected from the at least one active sensor. The EEG is obtained based on the first signal and the second signal.
