    Abstract: Retraction systems, assemblies, and devices for retracting an end unit are provided. A retraction assembly may be configured to move the end unit of a robot between a first state and a second state. A first signal may be received indicating a working condition. A first instruction may be generated to move the end unit from the second state to the first state. The retraction assembly may be caused to move the end unit from the second state to the first state based on receiving the first signal and the first instruction. The end unit may be held in the first state when the first signal is being received and the retraction assembly may move the end unit from the first state to the second state when the first signal is not received.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for changing an end effector are provided. A connecting plate may have a first side, a second side opposite the first side, and a kinematic interface. The kinematic interface may include at least one projection extending from both the first side and the second side. A robot flange may have a first kinematic receiver including at least one recess for receiving a corresponding projection of the at least one projection of the first side. An end effector may have a second kinematic receiver and a locking assembly. The second kinematic receiver may include at least one recess for receiving a corresponding projection of the at least one projection of the second side. The locking assembly may be configured to releasably secure the end effector to the robot flange.
