Systems and methods are provided for an automation system. The systems and methods calculate a motion trajectory of a manipulator and an end-effector. The end-effector is configured to grasp a target object. The motion trajectory defines successive positions of the manipulator and the end-effector along a plurality of via-points toward the target object. The systems and methods further acquire force/torque (F/T) data from an F/T sensor associated with the end-effector, and adjusts the motion trajectory based on the F/T data.

A system is provided that includes a machine assembly, a first imaging sensor, an encoder, and one or more processors. The machine assembly is movable to actuate a brake lever of a vehicle in order to open a valve of an air brake system. The first imaging sensor is positioned to acquire two-dimensional perception information of a working environment that includes the brake lever during movement of the machine assembly towards the brake lever. The encoder detects a displacement of the machine assembly relative to a reference position of the machine assembly. The one or more processors estimate a target position of the brake lever relative to the machine assembly during movement of the machine assembly based on the two-dimensional perception information and the displacement. The one or more processors drive the movement of the machine assembly towards the target position of the brake lever.

A robotic system validates brake bleeding by detecting one or more forces generated by a machine assembly acting to move a brake lever of a vehicle in order to open a valve of an air brake system of the vehicle. The system also detects displacement of the machine assembly as the machine assembly acts to move the brake lever, monitors one or more sounds generated one or more of during or after the machine assembly acts to move the brake lever, and determines that the brake lever has been moved to a position to open the valve of the air brake system to release the air brake system based on the one or more forces that are detected, the displacement that is detected, and/or the one or more sounds that are monitored.

A valve arrangement for brake control of a vehicle braking system which is operated using pressure medium includes a relay valve arranged in a housing, and a solenoid valve configured for controlling the relay valve. The relay valve has an axially displaceable relay valve piston with a first annular sealing seat configured to be acted on with a control pressure which is directed into a control pressure chamber and which can be adjusted by the solenoid valve, having an axially displaceable plate valve having a radial sealing face, and having an insert secured to the housing which separates an operating chamber from a pressure chamber and which has a second annular sealing seat which is arranged coaxially relative to the first annular sealing seat of the relay valve piston. The first and second annular sealing seats cooperate simultaneously or alternately with the radial sealing face of the plate valve.
