A system for moving items in a facility may be described herein. The system may instruct components of the system to move the items at different speeds or velocities based on an item's fragility rating. A fragility rating may indicate an amount of force that an item withstands prior to damaging the item. A fragility rating for an item may be determined based on known fragility ratings of items with similar item metrics.

Apparatuses, systems, and techniques provide a policy that can be executed to cause a machine to move. In at least one embodiment, a first policy layer is provided to cause the machine to execute a first motion that causes the machine to accelerate to reach an unbiased state. A second policy layer is provided to cause the machine to execute a second motion without influencing the unbiased state to be reached by machine. The policy can comprise the first and second policy layers.

A robot arm control device according to the present disclosure comprises a workpiece selecting section that selects a target workpiece, which is a workpiece to be picked up and placed, among a plurality of workpieces conveyed by a conveyor system in a predetermined flow direction; and a motion control section that controls a motion of the robot arm to pick up the target workpiece at a predetermined pick up position and place the target workpiece at the target placement position selected among a plurality of predetermined placement positions, wherein the workpiece selecting section selects, among the workpieces that are candidates for selection, the workpiece that has a shortest distance from the distal end position at a task-start timing to the workpiece position at the task-start timing as the target workpiece.

A method for controlling a patrolling robot is provided. The method includes the steps of: acquiring, as first situation information on the patrolling robot, at least one of weight information on a support coupled to the patrolling robot and image information on the support and information on a location of the patrolling robot in a patrolling place; and determining a task and a travel route of the patrolling robot on the basis of the first situation information.

Art Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) are typically associated with the ownership of the digital art. NFTs can be used in the field of tattooing to manage a tattoo client, art generation, art conversion into tattoo instructions, manage payment of stakeholders, allow a client to buy and sell tattoos in a secondary market, book/manage tattoo sessions, or combinations thereof. An NFT structure allows for the certification of ownership. For the context of tattooing, a smart contract may be used to track ownership of the digital design rendition of the tattoo and tattooing information. The NFT smart contract may contain the rights for the execution of the tattoo, which may allow one or many applications of a tattoo rendition of the NFT digital design, such right being consumed in the process of successive executions until the NFT may not contain any rights associated with tattooing.

A method for retrieving an inventory item based on a handling robot, where the handling robot includes: a storage frame; and a material handling device installed on the storage frame, and including a telescopic arm and a manipulator installed to the telescopic arm; and the method for retrieving an inventory item includes: driving, by the telescopic arm, the manipulator to extend to a preset position of warehouse shelf along a preset horizontal reference line; loading, by the manipulator that is remained on the reference line, the inventory item located in the preset position; driving, by the telescopic arm, the manipulator loaded with the inventory item to move to the storage frame along the reference line; and unloading, by the manipulator that is remained on the reference line, the inventory item to the storage frame.

A device for ensuring safe operation of a robot used for cosmetics applications, including the retrofitting of robots not originally design for such applications. In some embodiments, the robot is used for the automatic placement of eyelash extensions onto the natural eyelashes of a subject. In some embodiments, a safety barrier is provided by a physical barrier or light curtain. In other embodiments, readily deformable end effectors are used.

The invention relates to a method for orientating two workpieces in order to form a joining connection, wherein in a longitudinal orientation step the first workpiece is orientated relative to the second workpiece) along at least one of the workpiece edges by linear movement of at least one of the grippers relative to the other gripper and wherein the longitudinal orientation step is carried out during the transport of the workpieces from the provision station to the processing station. Furthermore, the invention relates to a manipulator which comprises a first gripper and a second gripper.

A method of delivering packages using a robot delivery system including: obtaining information about a package from an online ordering platform application programing interface, the information about the package including at least a destination of the package; transmitting the information about the package to a first robot; instructing the first robot to obtain the package or retain the package; and instructing the first robot to deliver the package to the destination using a conveyance system.

A container disassembly workstation for a pharmacy order processing system includes a base, a desktop connected to the base and defining a container disassembly workspace, and a pharmaceutical receptacle assembly extending through the desktop. The pharmaceutical receptacle assembly includes a pharmaceutical dust separation screen configured to retain pharmaceuticals and to permit pharmaceutical dust to pass through the pharmaceutical dust separation screen. The pharmaceutical receptacle assembly also includes a pharmaceutical dust receptacle configured to receive the pharmaceutical dust separation screen and pharmaceutical dust from the pharmaceuticals. The pharmaceutical receptacle assembly further includes a pharmaceutical receptacle positioned adjacent to the pharmaceutical dust receptacle, wherein the pharmaceutical receptacle includes a pharmaceutical receptacle funnel configured to receive the pharmaceuticals from the pharmaceutical dust separation screen and a door hingeably connected to the pharmaceutical receptacle funnel and configured to move between an open position and a closed position.
