    摘要: A method and apparatus for controlling an industrial robot relative to an intuitive motion coordinate system. The current 3D position of a touch-screen teach pendant relative to the robot is sensed, and an operator-centric frame of reference is developed relative to the robot-centric frame of reference. A simulacra of the robot is generated, oriented so as to correspond with an operator view of the robot from the current position of the controller, and displayed on the pendant. A motion-control construction, generated and displayed on the pendant, is adapted to receive jog commands from the operator indicative of a respective incremental movement of the simulacra in the operator-centric frame of reference. Each jog command is transformed from the operator-centric frame of reference to the robot-centric frame of reference, and the robot moved in accordance with the transformed jog command. Movement of the pendant relative to the robot is sensed and, in response, the displayed simulacra is reoriented to correspond to the new position of the pendant relative to the robot as viewed by the operator.

    摘要: A system for performing the method of this invention includes a leader having a robot arm able to articulate about first axes and supporting an end effector. A follower includes a robot arm able to articulate about respective second axes. Servo motors articulate the leader arm about the first axes and the follower arm about the second axes. A user interface allows a user to jog the arm of the leader and to program movement of the arms for automatic execution such that the end effector reaches predetermined positions. A controller, operatively connected to the servo motors and the user interface, controls operation of the servo motors, moves the arm of the leader in accordance with the programmed movement, and moves the arm of the follower such that it tracks or mirrors movement of the leader.

    摘要: A robot system including robot control devices, a network, and a mode changing device which switches between an automatic operation mode and teaching mode. In the state where the mode changing device selects the automatic operation mode, drive power is supplied to all of the robots regardless of the state of the enable device. In the state where the mode changing device selects the teaching mode, when the enable device does not permit operation of at least two robots, the drive power of all of the robots is cut.

    摘要: A computer-assisted medical system includes a manipulator arm and a controller. The controller includes a computer processor. The controller is configured to servo at least one joint associated with at least one manipulator arm segment of the manipulator arm, the servoing including executing a servo loop. Executing the servo loop includes obtaining an actual state of the manipulator arm, computing a difference between a commanded state and the actual state, where the commanded state is used for the servoing the at least one joint, and determining whether the difference exceeds an error threshold. Based on determining that the difference does exceed the error threshold, the commanded state is updated using an offset to reduce the difference, and. Based on determining that the difference does not exceed the error threshold, the commanded state is not updated. The controller is further configured to apply the commanded state to control the actual state.

    摘要: A portable apparatus for controlling a robot and a method therefor. The portable apparatus includes: an orientation sensor adapted for measuring orientation of the portable apparatus; an HMI device adapted for detecting two-dimensional manual motion relative to the HMI device; and a processing unit adapted for receiving a first signal representing the measured orientation of the portable apparatus and a second signal representing the detected two-dimensional manual motion relative to the HMI device and controlling a part of the robot to move in a direction in consideration of the measured orientation of the portable apparatus and the detected two-dimensional manual motion relative to the HMI device. By having the portable apparatus and the method therefor as explained herein, the two-dimensional manual movement on touch panel is integrated with orientation of the portable apparatus and an integration of these is mapped by the robot, which makes it possible to define a path in three dimensional space for jogging/teaching robot's movements in three dimension.
