A system, method, and apparatus for a robot system that manipulates the surface of an object effect programmed manipulation goals such as reaching specific locations on the surface of the object, displacing the surface of the object, applying a predetermined force and torque to the surface of the object, dynamically changing the contact point between the robot and the object, and applying force to structures below the surface of the object. The system and method determine the state of the object through a sensing method that includes, without limitation: torque and force measurement, visible light sensors, range and depth sensors, ultrasound sensors, thermographic sensors, and worktable force measurement.

Method and system for autonomous object manipulation

An apparatus includes a base and a robotic arm operatively coupled to the base via a connector. The robotic arm includes a set of links interconnected by a set of joints. A first link from the set of links is operatively coupled to the connector. Each joint from the set of joints includes a brake from a set of brakes, each brake from the set of brakes configured to be enabled or disabled. The apparatus further comprises an end effector operatively coupled to the robotic arm via a second link from the set of links different from the first link. The apparatus further comprises a controller, communicably coupled to at least one of the base, the robotic arm, or the end effector. The controller is configured to cause the robotic arm to perform a task, and determine, during the task, that movement of the robotic arm is to be restricted.

Method and system for electromechanical safety for robotic manipulators

A system, method, and apparatus for autonomous body interaction system is provided. A system and method for a robot interacting with a human or other soft or deformable body is provided for the purpose of active application of pressure to specific points or regions of the body. The system and method conducts at least one of: localizing the position of the body, detecting the configuration of the body, identifying the surface region(s) of the body, predicting the underlying anatomy of the body, assessing the state of the body, preparing a plan for manipulation of the body, and executing a predetermined and/or dynamically updated plan on the body.

Method and system for autonomous body interaction

The instant application describes cooked egg products with distinct egg yolk and white components that have a leavened, soft texture, and methods of producing them.

Compositions and methods of producing cooked egg products

A system, method, and apparatus are provided for generating a dynamic, autonomous, machine-learning, and modifiable therapeutic massage plan. A system, method, and apparatus are provided for determining and executing the motion planning for directing one or more robotic arms to execute a sequence of motions while maintaining contact between their end effectors and a subject.

Method and system for generating a therapeutic massage plan

A system, method, and apparatus are provided for a robotic system effecting autonomous therapy or treatment of a body having soft and/or hard tissue. A system, method, and apparatus are provided for a robotic control system having a fused sensing stream for predicting the deformation of a robotic end effector and the tissue that the end effector is in contact with using, e.g., a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) model. The model updates provide adjustment parameters for the control system to compensate for changes in the mechanical nature of the robotic end effector and the characteristics and/or movement of the tissue being treated by the robotic end effector.
