1. An electric vehicle, comprising: a board including first and second deck
portions each configured to receive a left or right foot of a rider; a wheel
assembly including at least one ground-contacting element extending below
the board; a motor assembly mounted to the board and configured to rotate
the ground-contacting element around an axle to propel the electric vehicle;
at least one orientation sensor configured to measure orientation
information of the board; a sensing region disposed in one of the deck
portions, the sensing region including two sensor zones laterally spaced fromeach other such that a first of the two sensor zones registers with a toe
portion of the corresponding foot of the rider and a second of the two sensor
zones registers with a heel portion of the same foot of the rider; and a motorcontroller configured to receive board orientation information measured by
the orientation sensor and rider presence information based on outputs ofthe two sensor zones, and to cause the motor assembly to propel the electricvehicle based on the board orientation information and the rider presence
information; wherein the motor controller is configured to activate the motor
assembly in response to activation of both sensor zones, and to halt themotor assembly in response to non-activation of the sensor zones.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Before the present disclosure is described herein, it is to be understood that
this disclosure is not limited to the particular structures, process steps, ormaterials disclosed herein, but is extended to equivalents thereof as would
be recognized by those ordinarily skilled in the relevant arts. It should also
be understood that terminology employed herein is used for the purpose of
describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting.
DEFINITIONS
The following terminology will be used in accordance with the definitions set
forth below.
As used herein, "robot body" is intended as a broad term to define one ormore structural components (e.g., a frame, chassis, covering or shell, etc.)
capable of supporting one or more other components of a hull robot or its
subsystems, and/or capable of providing covering and/or concealment of one
or more components or subsystems of the hull robot.
As used herein, the term "about" is used to provide flexibility to a numerical
range endpoint by providing that a given value may be "a little above" or "alittle below" the endpoint.
As used herein, a plurality of items, structural elements, compositionalelements, and/or materials may be presented in a common list for
convenience. However, these lists should be construed as though eachmember of the list is individually identified as a separate and uniquemember. Thus, no individual member of such list should be construed as a defacto equivalent of any other member of the same list solely based on theirpresentation in a common group without indications to the contrary.
（一部省略してあります）※参考文
A hull cleanliness detection robot is described for autonomously detecting acleanliness of a hull. The robot includes a robot body, a drive subsystemonboard the robot for driving and maneuvering the robot about the hull, andan autonomous cleanliness detection system.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002] The threat of a loss of electric power due to hurricanes or other storms,
as well as the possibility of lost grid power from accidental or deliberate
attack on the power grid has become much greater in recent years, asdependency on supplied electric power has grown.
In many cases, if a power generation or power substation goes off-line for any
reason, it may take at least a few days and up to a number of weeks torestore power to customers. Also, during severe temperature conditions, thepower draw for air conditioning or heating can create a power brown-out
condition where the power generation equipment cannot keep up with power
demand.
Consequently power generation capability, to provide power backup and also
to provide supplemental power during times of peak demand, is a definite
requirement to assure day-to-day needs are met for electricity, bothresidential and commercial.
[0003] Ideally, backup power can be supplied from natural or renewableprimary power sources, e.g., solar or photovoltaic (PV) panels, wind power, orfrom wave action of ocean waves or waves on a large body of water such as alarge lake, bay or bayou. Favorably the power generated there can be stored
and later made available from storage batteries, or another storage means
such as compressed air.
In an ideal situation, electric power can be collected and stored at an
out-of-the way location, and then the collected power is brought to amunicipality or other location when the supplemental or backup power isneeded. Also, because the location of storm damage is not known in advance,
the back up or supplemental electric power storage system should be mobile

or transportable, so that it can be quickly brought to the location where thepower is needed, and then returned to a remote or out-of-the way electric
power collection location when the crisis ends.
