USING SIMULATED/GENERATED NOISE TO EVALUATE AND REFINE STATE ESTIMATION

A robotic system is disclosed. The system includes a memory configured to store estimated state information associated with a computer simulation of a robotic operation to stack a plurality of items on a pallet or other receptacle. The system includes one or more processors coupled to the communication interface and configured to perform the computer simulation.

The programmatically generated noise data reflects an estimation of the effect that one or more sources of noise in a real-world physical workspace with which the computer simulation is associated would have on a real-world state of the plurality of items and/or the pallet or other receptacle if the plurality of items were stacked on the pallet or other receptacle as simulated in the computer simulation.

Malfunction determination method and malfunction determination device

A malfunction determination method for a production machine including a motor as a driving source of a rotating mechanism acquires sensor data of a sensor for detecting a condition of the production machine, determines whether the production machine has an operation stop period during which the production machine has stopped its operation for a predetermined period of time or longer in accordance with an operation history of the production machine, sets a malfunction determination suspension period for suspending a malfunction determination of the production machine when determined to have the operation stop period, in accordance with a length of the operation stop period, and determines whether the production machine has a malfunction in a period other than the malfunction determination suspension period.

Palletizing containers for charging electronic devices contained therein

A system and method palletize containers having electrical terminals for charging electronic devices packaged therein. First, a stacking pattern is determined on the basis of the sizes, shapes, and locations of electrical terminals on both the pallets and the containers to be stacked. These data may be read, for example, with a computer vision system that uses an articulating robotic arm, and may be encoded in a two-dimensional barcode on each pallet and/or container. Next, the robotic arm stacks the container so that its terminals make electrical contact with terminals on the pallet, or on a previously-stacked layer of containers. Then, the placement is tested to ensure that a good electrical connection exists vertically through the entire stack. Once the pallet is finalized, all electronic devices carried thereon may be simultaneously charged during transit or storage.
