    Abstract: A robot control system and a method for updating camera calibration is presented. The method comprises the robot control system performing a first camera calibration to determine camera calibration information, and outputting a first movement command based on the camera calibration information for a robot operation. The method further comprises outputting, after the first camera calibration, a second movement command to move a calibration pattern within a camera field of view, receiving one or more calibration images, and adding the one or more calibration images to a captured image set. The method further comprises performing a second camera calibration based on calibration images in the captured image set to determine updated camera calibration information, determining whether a deviation between the camera calibration information and the updated camera calibration information exceeds a defined threshold, and outputting a notification signal if the deviation exceeds the defined threshold.

    Abstract: Automatic calculation of a trajectory by taking the interference with an obstacle into account may be performed by calculating trajectory information representing a trajectory on which (i) the picking hand picks, on the first position, the work with a posture associated with the first position included in the first combination; and (ii) the picking hand arranges, on the second position, the work with a posture associated with the second position included in the first combination, and determining whether an interference is present or absent on the trajectory represented by the trajectory information calculated in the calculating a trajectory.

    Abstract: A computing system and a method for calibration verification is presented. The computing system is configured to perform a first calibration operation, and to control a robot arm to move a verification symbol to a reference location. The robot control system further receives, from a camera, a reference image of the verification symbol, and determines a reference image coordinate for the verification symbol. The robot control system further controls the robot arm to move the verification symbol to the reference location again during an idle period, receives an additional image of the verification symbol, and determines a verification image coordinate. The robot control system determines a deviation parameter value based the reference image coordinate and the verification image coordinate, and whether the deviation parameter value exceeds a defined threshold, and performs a second calibration operation if the threshold is exceeded.

    Abstract: A point cloud information acquiring unit for acquiring point cloud information of a region including at least one of the picking hand and the work at a time which is at least one of (i) when the picking hand picks the work at the first position, (ii) when the picking hand moves the work out of the first container, (iii) when the picking hand moves the work in the second container and (iv) when the picking hand arranges the work at the second position; and an abnormality detection unit for detecting an abnormality based on the point cloud information acquired by the point cloud information acquiring unit are included.
