Robotic augmentation of creative tasks
A robot is configured to assist an end-user with creative tasks. While the end-user modifies the work piece, the robot observes the modifications made by the end-user and determines one or more objectives that the end-user may endeavor to accomplish. The robot then determines a set of actions to perform that assist the end-user with accomplishing the objectives.

Production management device
A production management device, such as a production management computer, determines a production sequence of plural types of substrates in order to produce the substrates consecutively on a product type-by-type basis by using a component mounter including component supply devices. The production management device includes a main control unit for determining a production sequence of substrates such that, where a time from start to completion of off-line setup of all the component supply devices to be used for a single product type of substrate is defined as an off-line setup time, a sum of the off-line setup times for two product types of substrates to be consecutively produced is balanced over an entire period of consecutive production.
Method for processing food item
A processing system (10) and corresponding method (158) are provided for processing workpieces (WP), including food items, to cut and remove undesirable components from the food items and/or portion the food items while being conveyed on a conveyor system (12). An X-ray scanning station (14) is located on an upstream conveyor section (20) to ascertain size and/or shape parameters of the food items as well as the location of any undesirable components of the food items, such as bones, fat or cartilage. Thereafter the food items are transferred to a downstream conveyor (20) at which is located an optical scanner (102) to ascertain the size and/or shape parameters of the food items. The results of the X-ray and optical scanning are transmitted to a processor (18) to confirm that the food item scanned by the optical scanner is the same as that previously scanned by the X-ray scanner. Once this identity is confirmed, if required, the data from the X-ray scanner is translated or transformed onto the data from the optical scanner. Such translation may include one or more of the shifting of the food items in the X and/or Y direction, rotation of the food item, scaling of the size of the food item, and sheer distortion of the food item. Next, the location of the undesirable material within the food item is mapped from the X-ray scanning data onto the optical scanning data. Thereafter, the undesirable material is removed by a cutter(s) (28). The food item may also (or alternatively) been portioned by the cutter(s) (28).
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MITIGATING OVERLAY DISTORTION PATTERNS CAUSED BY A WAFER BONDING TOOL
A system includes a wafer shape metrology sub-system configured to perform one or more shape measurements on post-bonding pairs of wafers. The system includes a controller communicatively coupled to the wafer shape metrology sub-system. The controller receives a set of measured distortion patterns. The controller applies a bonder control model to the measured distortion patterns to determine a set of overlay distortion signatures. The bonder control model is made up of a set of orthogonal wafer signatures that represent the achievable adjustments. The controller determines whether the set of overlay distortion signatures associated with the measured distortion patterns are outside tolerance limits provides one or more feedback adjustments to the bonder tool.
