Embodiment Construction

[0018] Referring to the drawings, like reference numerals correspond to like or similar parts throughout the several views, figure 1 A system 100 for assembling a device consisting of a plurality of parts X, such as a battery, is schematically illustrated. System 100 includes a system controller 102 having at least one processor 104 and at least one memory 106 (or any suitable non-transitory computer-readable storage medium). Processor 104 may be a combination of application specific integrated circuit(s), circuit(s), and central processing unit(s) (ie, microprocessor). Memory 106 may be a combination of one or more of read-only memory, read-only programmable memory, random access memory, hard drive, or other suitable non-transitory computer-readable storage media. Processor 104 may execute controller-executable instructions stored in memory 106 . Controller-executable instructions may be software or firmware routines or routines, combinational logic circuit(s), serial logic...

Abstract

A method includes the steps of: actuating a robotic arm to perform an action at a starting position; moving the robotic arm from the starting position toward a first position; and determining, based on a vision processing method, when the robotic arm reaches the first position from a first Whether the first part of the position will be ready to undergo the first motion performed by the robot arm; initially used to determine the positional deviation of the second part from the second position and the second part to undergo the execution by the robot arm when the robot arm reaches the second position execution of the vision processing method for readiness of the second motion; and performing the first motion on the first part using the robotic arm based on a positional deviation of the first part from the first position predetermined by the vision processing method.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Application No. 61 / 886764, filed October 4, 2013, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. [0003] Government License Rights [0004] This invention was made with government support under Contract No. DE-EE-0002217 awarded by the Department of Energy. The government has certain rights in this invention. technical field [0005] The present disclosure relates to a method and system for controlling a robotic assembly. Background technique [0006] At least some manufacturing processes use robotic components to assemble certain devices. For example, batteries can be assembled using robotic components. The robotic assembly includes at least one movable robotic arm capable of performing actions on the component, such as drilling or welding. Conventional robotic assemblies use sophisticated tools, jigs, or pallets that allow the robot to manipulate...
