Systems and methods for modulating speed limits of robotic devices are disclosed herein. According to at least one non-limiting exemplary embodiment, a robot may calculate a maximum speed limit as a function of available turn partitions, or set of discretized movements, and distance to nearest obstacles along the turn partitions. The system determines, for each of several turn partitions, the distance to the nearest obstacle point within each partition. It identifies a turn partition to execute based on a segment of the robot's route, which includes a turn within the partition's range. The system calculates a speed limit for the robot on this route segment, considering the distance to the nearest obstacle in the selected turn partition, and assigns a maximum speed to the robot according to the determined speed limit. This approach optimizes the robot's navigation by dynamically adjusting speed based on environmental obstacles and route requirements.

Vehicle speed limiter

The present invention provides a speed limiting device that allows the driver to correct the upper speed limit with an operation that is unlikely to be bothersome, in the event that the speed limit is incorrectly recognized. [Solution] The vehicle speed limiting device performs vehicle speed limiting control to prevent the vehicle speed from exceeding the upper limit vehicle speed. When the vehicle speed limiting device recognizes a new speed limit on the road on which the vehicle is traveling, it changes the upper limit vehicle speed to the limit vehicle speed. If the driver's operation of the acceleration or deceleration control satisfies predetermined reset conditions during the reset period, which is from the time the upper limit vehicle speed was changed until a predetermined time has elapsed, the upper limit vehicle speed is reset to the upper limit vehicle speed before the change.
