چکیده

A path generation method for robot-based welding systems is proposed. The method that is a modification of the method “teaching by showing” is supported by the recently developed pseudo stereovision system (PSVS). A path is generated by means of the target-object (TOB), PSVS, and the pseudo stereo visual servo control scheme proposed. A part of the new software application, called humanPT, permits the communication of a user with the robotic system. Here, PSVS, the robotic system, the TOB, the estimation of robot poses by means of the TOB, and the control and recording algorithm are described. Some new concepts concerning segmentation and point correspondence are applied as a complex image is processed. A method for calibrating the endpoint of TOB is also explained. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed system.

Simulation of Position Based Visual Control and Performance Tests of 6R Robot

This paper presents simulation and experimental results of position-based visual servoing control process of a 6R robot using 2 fixed cameras. This method has the ability to deal with real time changes in the relative position of the target-object with respect to robot. Also, greater accuracy and independency of servo control structure from the target pose coordinates are the additional advanta...

Intelligent Robotic System with Fuzzy Learning Controller and 3D Stereo Vision

It is well known that robotic manipulators are highly nonlinear coupling dynamic systems. It is difficult to establish an appropriate mathematical model for designing a model-based controller. The model-free feature of fuzzy logic control strategy was employed to design robotic motion controller. However, there is no guide rule for designing the fuzzy rule bank and parameters, it still needs ti...
