Embodiment Construction

[0037] figure 1 An example of an industrial robot 1 with a control unit 2 according to the invention is shown. The robot has at least one arm. figure 1 The robot disclosed in has two arms. The robot includes a plurality of joints that move about a plurality of axes under the control of a control unit. The control unit comprises software and hardware, such as a data memory 4, and a processing unit 6 for handling the main functions of robot control, such as executing robot programs. The processing unit 4 may comprise one or more central processing units (CPUs). The data memory 4 has a storage medium for storing program codes for controlling the motion of the robot. The robot may also include a user interface that allows communication between the robot and the user. For example, the user interface is a portable operating device for teaching and manually operating the robot. Alternatively, the user interface is a touch-enabled screen on the robot body. In this type of robot...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for controlling an industrial robot (1) using interactive commands and a control unit (2) for controlling the motions of an industrial robot (1) based on interactive commands. The control unit comprises data storage (4) for storing at least one defined interactive command and a processing unit (6) configured to execute the interactive command upon recognizing the interactive command. The data storage (4) comprises a plurality of defined actions to be performed upon recognizing the defined interactive command, and the processing unit (6) is configured to determine the current context of the robot, to select which action to be performed based on the actions defined for the command and the current context of the robot, and to perform the selected action upon recognizing the interactive command.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of controlling an industrial robot using interactive commands. The invention also relates to a control unit for controlling the motion of an industrial robot based on interactive commands. Background technique [0002] An industrial robot includes a manipulator and a robot control unit for controlling the movement of the manipulator. The manipulator includes multiple joints that move under the control of the robot control unit. The robot may also include a portable user interface to the robot, such as a TPU (Teach Pendant Unit), tablet device or other portable HMI for manually operating the robot. The user communicates with the robot control unit via the portable user interface and sends commands to the robot through the user interface. [0003] In a collaborative robot system, the user needs to communicate with the robot in an easy and intuitive way. Using a TPU or any other portable HMI to communicate wit...
