Abstract: Embodiments of present disclosure relates to a robot and method for sewing an object. The robot includes a first robotic arm adapted to hold a needle, the needle carrying a length of a thread, a second robotic arm adapted to hold the needle, and a controller configured to move the first and second robotic arms to perform a plural of sewing operations so as to form a plural of stitches on the object A sewing operation includes moving the first robotic arm a first distance to cause the needle to penetrate a part of the object; and moving the second robotic arm to hold a penetration portion of the needle and pull the whole needle out of the object after the needle being released by the first robotic arm.

Abstract: Embodiments of present disclosure relate to a robot and a method for adjusting sewn threads. The robot includes a robotic arm configured to hold an adjusting tool, and a controller configured to cause the adjusting tool to partially go across a thread section along a path defined between a bottom side of the thread section and an outer surface of an object. The sewn threads have a first end fixed to the object and a second end, a plural of stitches formed across a sewing zone on the object between the first end and the second end, and each stitch has the thread section including a top side and the opposite bottom side. Then the adjusting tool moves upward away from the outer surface so as to adjust pitches between the stitches.

Abstract: A robot and a method for sewing an object. The robot includes a robotic arm configured to hold a needle. The needle is tied with a thread. The robot includes a controller configured to move the needle, wherein the object includes a flexible outer surface and pre-stitches formed on the outer surface. Each of the pre-stitches includes a thread section including a top side and an opposite bottom side facing the outer surface. The controller is configured to perform a sewing operation by causing the needle to go across the thread section along a path defined between the bottom side of the thread section and the outer surface of the object.
