MOTION PLAN DEVICE, MOTION PLAN METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18277893 titled 'MOTION PLAN DEVICE, MOTION PLAN METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a motion plan device that sets conditions for a robot performing pick-and-place tasks, taking into account collision avoidance necessary targets.

  • The device sets conditions for the robot based on the location of the transport objects and ensures no collisions occur within the movable region.
  • It calculates a motion plan for the robot considering the movable regions around the collision avoidance necessary targets.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various industries such as manufacturing, logistics, and automation where robots are used for pick-and-place operations.

Problems Solved

1. Ensures efficient and safe movement of robots during pick-and-place tasks. 2. Optimizes the motion planning process by considering collision avoidance necessary targets.

Benefits

1. Reduces the risk of collisions and damage to objects. 2. Improves the overall efficiency and accuracy of pick-and-place operations.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimized motion planning devices can be integrated into robotic systems used in warehouses, factories, and assembly lines to enhance productivity and safety.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be motion planning algorithms used in robotics to optimize path planning and collision avoidance during tasks.

Unanswered Questions

How does the device handle dynamic obstacles in the environment?

The patent application does not specify how the device adapts to dynamic obstacles that may appear in the robot's path during operation.

What sensors or technologies are used to detect collision avoidance necessary targets?

The patent application does not detail the specific sensors or technologies employed to identify collision avoidance necessary targets in the environment.


Original Abstract Submitted

A motion plan device X mainly includes a condition setting means X and a motion plan means X. The condition setting means X sets a first condition in which a robot performing a pick-and-place for one or more transport objects and the one or more transport objects are located inside movable region being a region where no collision with a collision avoidance necessary target occurs, and a second condition in which, while the robot is grasping and carrying the transport object, the movable region around the collision avoidance necessary target of the robot and the movable region around the collision avoidance necessary target of the transport object being carried match with each other. Next, the motion plan means X calculates a motion plan of the robot based on the first condition and the second condition.
