Systems, apparatuses, and methods for dynamic filtering of high intensity broadband electromagnetic waves from image data from a sensor coupled to a robot

This invention describes a robot designed to navigate using a camera. When bright light, like sunlight, causes the robot to mistake it for obstacles, the system filters this out. It does this by continuously taking pictures, calculating the average brightness from a series of recent images, and using this average to set a dynamic threshold to ignore overly bright areas in real-time.

Why it matters: The 2021 filing predates significant advancements in lightweight AI models for real-time image processing on edge devices. Modern deep learning could offer more robust glare filtering than a simple mean intensity threshold.
