    Abstract: A robot is operated to navigate an environment using cameras and map the type, size and location of objects. The system determines the type, size and location of objects and classifies the objects for association with specific containers. For each category of object with a corresponding container, the robot chooses a specific object to pick up in that category, performs path planning and navigates to objects of the category, to either organize or pick up the objects. Actuated pusher arms move other objects out of the way and manipulates the target object onto the front bucket to be carried.

    Abstract: A robot interference checking motion planning technique using swept volume deformation. A rapidly-exploring random tree (RRT) algorithm generates random sample nodes between a start point and a goal point. Each sample node is evaluated by checking for robot-obstacle interference along a path segment to the node. If an interference exists along the path segment, a swept volume of the segment is used to identify a critical posture where the interference is greatest, and obstacle interference points are used to define a virtual force applied to the robot links to modify the path segment to alleviate the interference condition. A swept volume of the modified path segment is computed and evaluated. If the modified swept volume is collision-free and the modified path segment motion plan meets robot joint range criteria, the modified path segment and the sample node are added to the overall robot motion program.

    Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to model the shapes of a robot and a surrounding obstacle with a small amount of data, and to improve the accuracy of checking interference. An interference check device for checking interference between a robot and a surrounding obstacle, the interference check device comprising: an inclusive cuboid set conversion unit for converting each of the robot and the surrounding obstacle into a three-dimensional model of a set of cuboids; and an interference determination unit for determining whether or not there is interference between the three-dimensional model of the robot and the three-dimensional model of the surrounding obstacle by simulation of motions of the three-dimensional models of the robot and surrounding obstacle based on a motion program.

    Abstract: A calculation device, a calculation method, and a storage medium are provided. The present invention is provided with: a first calculation unit which, with respect to input data, performs calculations relating to predetermined processing by using a first model in which a corresponding relationship between input data and output data changes by performing machine learning that uses learning data, and outputs a first output; a second calculation unit which, with respect to input data, performs calculations relating to predetermined processing using a second model for which the correspondence relationship between input data and output data is fixed, and outputs a second output; and a comparison unit which, on the basis of a comparison result obtained by comparing the first output and the second output with a prescribed determination standard, outputs the first output, the second output, or a third output that is a combination of the first and second outputs.

    Abstract: Disclosed are a transportation tool, a method for interaction between an intelligent mobile robot and the transportation tool, and a system comprising a plurality of transportation tools. The transportation tool comprises a body (101), and a bearing component (102) mounted on the body (101) and extending out of the body (101), where one or more markers (103) is/are formed on the body (101); at least part of the one or more markers (103) are located above the bearing component (102); at least one of the one or more markers (103) forms a code; and the code is used for representing information related to the transportation tool. The transportation tool can be detected and identified more easily and specifically, thereby avoiding or reducing accidents and potential safety hazards that may occur due to defects in detection and identification, and improving the efficiency and safety of interaction between interaction objects, such as the intelligent mobile robot and the transportation tool.
