An acquisition unit acquires specification information about a robot that is a component of a robot cell system, member information including shape information about a member, other than the robot, which is also a component of the robot cell system, and work information relating to work to be performed by the robot. A layout planning unit calculates, based on the specification information, the member information, and the work information, one or more layout candidates for the robot and the member in the robot cell system. A pose planning unit calculates, for each layout candidate, a set of combinations of a start pose at a start point and an end pose at an end point of each operation of the robot. A route planning unit calculates, for each layout candidate, a set of routes from the start pose to the end pose of each combination of the start pose and the end pose.

Robot cell system design device, method, and program

The present disclosure provides an acquisition unit acquiring an installation position, which serves as a point of origin within a range in which each of a plurality of robots can move, a start position, which is a prescribed location of each of the plurality of robots when in a starting posture, and an end position, which is a prescribed location when in a final posture, and an evaluation unit evaluates, for each of the plurality of robots, the risk of interference between the plurality of robots on the basis of overlap between polyhedra defined on the basis of polygons that include the installation position, the start position and the end position.

Interference evaluation device, method, and program

A robot control device includes: a first acquisition unit to acquire path information relating to a path of a robot and speed information relating to a speed the robot moves on the path; a second acquisition unit to acquire specification information relating to a specification of the robot; a determination unit to determine a segment where an action time of the robot is shortened even when a waypoint is added on the path; a correction unit to correct the path of the robot so as to make inertia of the robot smaller in a segment where an action time of the robot is shortened; a computation unit to compute a load acting on a joint of the robot; and an adjustment unit to adjust a control amount for controlling an acceleration of the robot joint such that the load computed by the computation unit satisfies a target load.

Robot control device, robot control method, and recording medium storing robot control program

An acceleration adjustment apparatus may include a load calculation unit that calculates a peak value of a load that is estimated to act on a robot, based on a motion equation regarding a motion of the robot and a value of an acceleration of a joint of the robot in motion. The acceleration adjustment apparatus may further include an acceleration adjustment unit that executes at least one of a first adjustment in which, when the peak value of the load calculated by the load calculation unit is greater than a target value of the load acting on the robot when the robot is moving, the acceleration is adjusted to decrease, and a second adjustment in which, when the peak value of the load calculated by the load calculation unit is less than the target value, the acceleration is adjusted to increase.
