Controlling an Industrial Robot with a Feather! CellulARSkin + UR10 +ROS

Published on May 2, 2014


Controlling an Industrial Robot with a Feather! CellulARSkin + UR10 +ROS. Emmanuel Dean, Philipp Mitttendorfer, Bing Liu and Gordon Cheng. This demo shows an implementation of one modality (proximity sensor) of the CellulARSkin in a UR10 industrial robot. Here, a torque to position control framework has been developed and integrated in ROS.

Robot TOMM's Orange Demonstration

Published on Oct 14, 2015


At IROS 2015 (September 29 - October 1, 2015) the project Factory-in-a-day (https://pr.ai/showthread.php?12854) - funded by the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Union - presented recent results of their work. Partner TUM shows a demonstration of the robot TOMM that is able to sort oranges. The oranges are sorted by their quality. The robot feels the quality because bad ones are usually softer than good ones. The robot feels this with its hand that is equipped with the artificial skin - CellulARSkin. Another specialty in this demonstration is the fact that the robot is not preprogrammed for this task. With semantic reasoning it learned the task from high-level commands such as "pick the orange" "put it in a box". More details in the paper "Understanding the intention of human activities through semantic perception: observation, understanding and execution on a humanoid robot (http://www.factory-in-a-day.eu/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/14_iros_workshop-ramirezK.pdf)" by Karinne Ramirez-Amaro, Michael Beetz and Gordon Cheng.

The robot detects the oranges by two cameras in its head as well as the artificial skin. This skin was also used as an interface for programming. For Factory-in-a-day we use this demonstration to show that tactile sensors and vision can be used in a factory setting, for example the workers can easily teach robots by intuitive commands. There will be another video focusing on the teaching part.
