Autonomous Delivery of Items & Size Distribution; Determination of Aerosols Using Hyperspectral Image Technology and Analytics

IBM is developing an autonomous vehicle (AV) for delivering an item to a recipient at a delivery location. The AV includes a sensor system, a data store, a recipient verification unit, and a communication unit adapted to communicate stored authentication data.
IBM is also developing an aerosol distribution determining system that includes a set of light emitters for emitting electromagnetic radiation, a set of black disks for absorbing a portion of the radiation, a hyperspectral imaging camera, and a data processing system.
