Abstract
Systems and a method for robotic energy saving tool search. The systems and method include receiving inputs including one or more of robot information, tooling information, operation information, and position information. Using the information received, a list of tooling candidates of a robot required to complete one or more tasks for a complex operation and a task location for each of the one or more tasks in the complex operation is generated. Tooling candidate are then removed from the list of tooling candidates when the robot cannot reach every task location on a path required by the complex task. The path is adjusted to remove one or more collision events. The total energy consumption value for each remaining tooling candidate is calculated, and returning the tooling candidate with the lowest energy consumed.
