Abstract

A method for autonomous systems comprising the steps of using a feedback circuit to provide power to an autonomous system, wherein the feedback circuit is configured to alternate between a first and second sources of power depending on availability of power; creating a delay in the circuit by electrically coupling the circuit to a comparator, a one-shot signal, and a low pass filter, wherein the delay is configured to last for a specified amount of time, and wherein the delay will prevent the power from uncontrolled back and forth oscillation between the first and second power sources.
