    摘要: An articulated robot comprises a control unit including: a track information storage unit which stores track information corresponding to a combination of a start point and an end point; a setting unit which sets a current position and a target position of an arm distal end as the start point and the end point; and an operation command generation unit which generates an operation command based on track information corresponding to a combination of the set start point and the set end point (corresponding track information). If the corresponding track information is not stored but related track information corresponding to a combination of a start point and an end point having a predetermined relationship with a combination of the set start point and the set end point is stored in the track information storage unit, the operation command generation unit generates the operation command based on the related track information.

    摘要: Aspects of the generation of new robotic motion trajectories are described. In one embodiment, a new robot motion trajectory may be generated by gathering demonstrated motion trajectories, adapting the demonstrated motion trajectories into robot-reachable motion trajectories based on a joint space of a robot model, for example, and generating motion harmonics with reference to the motion trajectories. Further, one or more constraints may be specified for a new goal. The weights of the motion harmonics may then be searched to identify or generate a new motion trajectory for a robot, where the new motion minimizes discrepancy from the demonstrated motion trajectories and error due to the at least one constraint. In the new motion trajectory, the degree to which the constraints are satisfied may be tuned using a weight. According to the embodiments, new motion variants may be generated without the need to learn or review new demonstrated trajectories.

    摘要: A robot controller is disclosed in which a specific target position is predetermined in order to define approaching and leaving paths for a robot hand, and a plurality of different path patterns are stored in a path pattern storage means as the approaching and leaving paths along which the robot hand approaches and leaves the predetermined specific target position. Next, based on a workpiece position detected by a visual sensor, one of the path patterns stored in the path pattern storage means is selected, and the selected path pattern is modified so that the target position of the robot hand is coincident with the actual workpiece position. The modified path pattern is defined as revised approaching and leaving paths and the robot hand is moved along the revised approaching and leaving paths.
