A motion control system and a motion control method are provided. The motion control method includes: sending a plurality of machining commands to a second controller by a first controller at a cloud; storing the plurality of machining commands in a buffer by the second controller; and operating the machine tool according to the plurality of machining commands stored in the buffer. As such, when poor communication occurs between the first controller and the second controller, the second controller causes the buffer to send a deceleration command to the machine tool so as to cause the machine tool to operate at a reduced speed, thereby avoiding unexpected motion such as sudden shutdown of the machine tool and damage to machined products.

A method for predicting collision of a machining path includes: a step of reading an NC program; a step of translating a plurality of block information in the NC program; a step of, prior to perform interpolation upon each of the plurality of block information, calculating a safety distance of a next block information with respect to a block information to be interpolated; a step of searching a number of individual block information having an accumulated distance greater than or equal to the safety distance; and a step of performing an anti-collision detection upon each of the individual block information contributing the accumulated distance. In addition, a system for predicting collision of a machining path is also provided.

A method for a motion test and a control host of a movable machinery are provided. The method includes: loading a first motion test program; generating, according to the first motion test program, a template file recording first coordinate information indicated by the first motion test program for the movable machinery to perform a physical motion; loading a second motion test program; reading the template file according to program information of the second motion test program and comparing second coordinate information indicated by the second motion test program for the movable machinery to perform the physical motion with the first coordinate information; and generating, according to a comparison result, a warning message reflecting that a control for the movable machinery by the second motion test program may be abnormal.

A calibration device for a computer-assisted surgical instrument includes a rigid body, stabilization members, and references structurally or mechanically complementary to the stabilization members and disposed on opposite sides of a manipulator of the instrument. Kinematic state of the manipulator is defaulted when the calibration device is connected to the instrument by the stabilization members passing through the rigid body and removably attaching to the references. A calibration method for a computer-assisted surgical instrument implemented by a computer system includes the steps of: prompting a user to connect the calibration device to the instrument; determining if the calibration device is properly connected to the instrument; and generating default kinematic information of the manipulator of the instrument if the calibration device is properly connected to the instrument. The calibration device and method effectively improve accuracy and precision of computer-assisted surgeries.

An automatic angle-measured apparatus includes a driving unit coupled with a clamping plate and a driving seat, an encoding unit located at an end of the driving unit facing the driving seat and signally connected to the driving unit, at least one attitude sensor located at the driving seat, and a control unit signally connected to the encoding unit and the attitude sensor. The attitude sensor senses the un-rotated and the rotated driving seat to generate a first and a second signals, respectively. The control unit bases on the first and the second signals to calculate an offset. The control unit controls the driving unit to rotate a predetermined angle. The encoding unit bases on the predetermined angle to generate location information. The control unit bases on the first signal, the second signal and the location information to calculate angle information and compensation for performing a correction procedure.
