Abstract: Disclosed herein is an object manipulator, comprising first and second extendible arms, a support member, and an end effector configured for grasping an object. The end effector comprises first and second end effector counterparts, wherein the first counterpart is disposed on the first arm and the second counterpart is disposed on the second arm. The end effector is displaceable, relative to the support member, via extension and retraction of the extendible arms. While the end effector and the object are in a grasping-effectible relationship, the first and second end effector counterparts are disposed, relative to the object, such that the object is graspable by the end effector. While the end effector and the object are in a grasping-ineffective relationship, the first and second end effector counterparts are displaceable, relative to the object, via the extendible arms, such that the end effector and the object become disposed in the grasping-effective relationship.

Abstract: A robotic arm system includes first robotic arm, second robotic arm and main controller. The first robotic arm and the second robotic arm are configured to grab object. The main controller is configured to: determine whether first force vector of first force applied by the first robotic arm to the object is equal to second force vector of second force applied by the second robotic arm to the object; when the first force vector and the second force vector are not equal, obtain a first difference between the first force vector and the second force vector; and according to the first difference, change at least one of the first force applied by the first robotic arm to the object and the second force applied by the second robotic arm to the object so that the first force vector and the second force vector are equal.

Abstract: A system is for automatic storage, picking, and packing of items. The system has: an arrangement of shelves for supporting storage boxes; a movable robotic arm, the robotic arm being configured for reaching into and picking an item from a storage box, and for grabbing and moving a storage box; and a camera and control unit, the arrangement of shelves comprises a first sub arrangement of shelves with a first vertical distance between the shelves, and a second sub arrangement of shelves with a second vertical distance between the shelves. The first vertical distance is chosen to allow the robotic arm to reach into and pick an item from said storage boxes. The second vertical distance is chosen so that each storage box must be moved out before the robotic arm can pick an item from the storage box.

Abstract: A robotic surgical system includes an eye gaze sensing system in conjunction with a visual display of a camera image from a surgical work site. Detected gaze of a surgeon towards the display is used as input to the system. This input may be used by the system to assign an instrument to a control input device (when the user is prompted to look at the instrument), or it may be used as input to a computer vision algorithm to aid in object differentiation and seeding information, facilitating identification/differentiation of instruments, anatomical features or regions.

Abstract: In assembly of a conventional plating apparatus, a position of a processing tank is adjusted so that the processing tank is disposed at an ideal position. This adjustment takes time and effort to assemble a plating apparatus, and assembly of the plating apparatus requires a high cost. The invention provides a substrate transporting apparatus provided with a substrate holder for holding a substrate, a holder griping mechanism that grips the substrate holder, a substrate transporting section that transports the substrate holder, a rotation mechanism that rotationally moves the holder griping mechanism around a vertical direction as an axis, and a linear motion mechanism that linearly moves the holder griping mechanism in a direction perpendicular to a plane defined by a transporting direction of the substrate holder by the substrate transporting section and a vertical direction.

Abstract: There is provided a mounting structure for an apparatus for taking out a molded product, the mounting structure being configured to reduce a burden imposed on a worker required to mount the apparatus for taking out a molded product. Upright wall portions of a pair of side plates are formed with a work window. Extended wall portions are formed with a work assist window. The work window is formed to have a size that allows a worker, who is at a location at which the worker can insert bolts into three through holes in a first through hole row, to insert bolts into three through holes in a second through hole row without changing the worker's location.
