Abstract

Systems and methods for robotic positioning of multiple tools. The system may include one or more robotic devices, multiple tools, and one or more controllers. The one or more robotic devices are each configured to connect to the tools, move the tools to a desired work position, and release the tools at the work position. The tools are able to operate mechanically independently from the robotic devices to perform an operation at the position to which they are delivered. After releasing the tools, the robotic devices are able to perform other operations including moving additional tools to different work positions. The one or more controllers oversee the operation of the one or more robotic devices and tools and control the overall operation on a work piece.
