Autonomous unmanned vehicles (UVs) for responding to situations are described. Embodiments include UVs that launch upon detection of a situation, operate in the area of the situation, and collect and send information about the situation. The UVs may launch from a vehicle involved in the situation, a vehicle responding to the situation, or from a fixed station. In other embodiments, the UVs also provide communications relays to the situation and may facilitate access to the situation by responders. The UVs further may act as decoupled sensors for vehicles. In still other embodiments, the collected information may be used to recreate the situation as it happened.

Autonomous unmanned vehicles for responding to situations

A system for unmanned aerial vehicle alignment including: an image sensor, configured to obtain an image of unmanned aerial vehicles and provide to a processor image data corresponding to the obtained image, the processor, configured to determine from the image data image positions of the unmanned aerial vehicles, determine an average position of the unmanned aerial vehicles relative to a first axis based on the image positions, determine an average line that extends along a second axis through the average position, wherein the first and second axes are perpendicular to each other, determine a target position of one of the unmanned aerial vehicles based on a relationship between its respective image position and a target alignment, and determine an adjustment instruction to direct said one of the unmanned aerial vehicles toward the target position, and provide the adjustment instruction to said one of the unmanned aerial vehicles.

Unmanned aerial vehicle alignment system

Herein is disclosed an unmanned aerial vehicle comprising a memory, configured to store a projection image; an image sensor, configured detect image data of a projection surface within a vicinity of the unmanned aerial vehicle; one or more processors, configured to determine a depth information for a plurality of points in the detected image data; generate a transformed projection image from a projection image by modifying the projection image to compensate for unevenesses in the projection surface according to the determined depth information; and send the transformed projection image to an image projector; and an image projector, configured to project the transformed projection image onto the projection surface.

Apparatus, method and storage medium associated with a beverage dispensing apparatus are disclosed herein. In embodiments, a beverage dispensing apparatus may include a dispenser to dispense a beverage into a beverage container placed underneath the dispenser; one or more sensors to sense and collect depth data associated with the beverage container; and a controller coupled to the dispenser and the one or more sensors to control the dispenser's dispensation of the beverage, in accordance with a capacity of the beverage container inferred based at least in part on the collected depth data associated with the beverage container. Other embodiments may be disclosed or claimed.

Beverage dispensing apparatus method and apparatus

Components, devices, systems, and methods for providing passive haptic feedback for a user interacting with a virtual reality simulation. A physical object with a surface may represents an object in the virtual reality simulation. A mechanism may be configured to change a shape or size of the surface of the physical object in response to a change in the virtual reality simulation.

Deformable objects for haptic feedback

In one example, notice of a priority vehicle is obtained. A first protective field is generated around a current vehicle and a second protective field is generated around the priority vehicle. A priority lane is created by moving the first protective field of the current vehicle away from the second protective field of the priority vehicle.

Autonomous rescue lane

A luminous intensity compensator, comprising a light source; a sensor, configured to receive sensor information representing a position of the light source, and to output sensor data representing the position of the light source; one or more processors, configured to determine from the sensor data a distance between the light source and a reference point; determine a loss factor of a wavelength based on the determined distance between the light source and the reference point; determine a compensated luminous intensity to yield a target luminous intensity of the wavelength after luminous intensity reduction due to the loss factor; and output control data to control the light source to emit the wavelength at the compensated luminous intensity.
