CONTROL DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18287119 titled 'CONTROL DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a control device that plans and corrects the operation of a robot carrying out tasks involving objects.

  • Operation planning means 17Y determines the initial operation plan for the robot.
  • Display control means 15Y shows trajectory information of the object based on the first plan.
  • Correction receiving means 16Y accepts corrections to the trajectory information from external sources.
  • Operation planning means 17Y then creates a second operation plan for the robot based on the corrections received.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in industrial automation, warehouse management, and manufacturing processes where precise object manipulation is required.

Problems Solved

This innovation solves the issue of inaccuracies in robot operation by allowing for real-time corrections to be made to the trajectory of objects being manipulated.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved efficiency, accuracy, and safety in tasks involving object manipulation by robots.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications include robotics companies, manufacturing industries, logistics companies, and any other businesses utilizing automation for object manipulation tasks.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art may include similar control devices for robots in industrial settings, but the specific combination of operation planning, display control, and correction receiving as described in this patent application may be novel.

Unanswered Questions

How does the correction receiving means prioritize and implement corrections from external inputs?

The patent application does not provide details on the specific process of prioritizing and implementing corrections received from external sources.

What types of objects and tasks is this technology best suited for?

The patent application does not specify the types of objects or tasks that would benefit most from the operation planning and correction capabilities of this control device.


Original Abstract Submitted

A control device 1X mainly includes an operation planning means 17Y, a display control means 15Y, and a correction receiving means 16Y. The operation planning means 17Y determines a first operation plan of a robot which executes a task in which an object is used. The display control means 15Y displays trajectory information regarding a trajectory of the object based on the first operation plan. The correction receiving means 16Y receives a correction relating to the trajectory information based on an external input. Then, the operation planning means 17Y determines a second operation plan of the robot based on the correction received by the correction receiving means 16Y.
