Learn about the most common methods for programming a robot, such as lead-through, teach pendant, offline, high-level, and learning-based programming.

Most traditional robots come with a teach pendant, making it the most familiar programming method to technicians. However, it can be disruptive to the manufacturing line as the robot has to be put ...

In 1984, The Learning Company released Robot Odyssey, which has been called the hardest computer game of all time with players having to program and control three robots to find home.Luckily, today’s ...

Ideas behind robot programming methods include coordinate systems and control programs. Robots are increasingly used in manufacturing operations to perform tasks with great speed and accuracy. Having ...

From drones to self-driving cars, robots and multi-robot systems are becoming pervasive in our daily lives. The incoming robotics revolution will fundamentally change the type of devices available to ...

Abstract: Easy-to-use programming methods for robotic manufacturing systems are a key element in enabling a wider audience to benefit from increasing automation. This paper provides an overview of ...

New research shows that programming robots to create their own teams and voluntarily wait for their teammates results in faster task completion, ... The comparison methods ranged from 11.8% to 23% ...

A new safety-check technique can prove with 100 percent accuracy that a planned robot motion will not result in a collision. The method can generate a proof in seconds and does so in a way that ...

Programming methods include online programming, where robots remain active during programming, and offline programming, where programming occurs independently of robots. Ideas behind robot programming ...
