Gunshot detection stabilized turret robot
First Claim
1. A mobile, remotely controlled robot comprising:
- a robot drive subsystem for maneuvering the robot;
a turret on the robot;
a turret drive for moving the turret;
a noise detection subsystem for detecting the probable origin of a noise;
a robot position and movement sensor subsystem;
a turret position sensor subsystem; and
one or more processors, responsive to the noise detection subsystem, the robot position and movement sensor subsystem, and the turret position sensor subsystem, configured to control the turret drive to orient the turret to aim a device mounted thereto at the origin of the noise and to maintain said aim as the robot moves.

Abstract
A mobile, remotely controlled robot comprising a robot drive subsystem for maneuvering the robot, a turret on the robot, a turret drive for moving the turret, a noise detection subsystem for detecting the probable origin of a noise, a robot position and movement sensor subsystem, a turret position sensor subsystem, and one or more processors, responsive to the noise detection subsystem, the robot position and movement sensor subsystem. The turret position sensor subsystem is configured to control the turret drive to orient the turret to aim a device mounted thereto at the origin of the noise and to maintain said aim as the robot moves.

17. A mobile, remotely controlled gunshot detection stabilized turret robot comprising:
-
a robot drive subsystem for maneuvering the robot; a turret on the robot; a turret drive for moving the turret; a gunshot detection subsystem for detecting the origin of a gunshot and determining the coordinates thereof; a robot position and movement sensor subsystem; a turret position sensor subsystem; and one or more processors, responsive to the gunshot detection subsystem, the robot position and movement sensor subsystem, and the turret position sensor subsystem, configured to control the turret drive to orient the turret to aim a device mounted thereto at the origin of the noise and to maintain said aim as the robot moves.
