Disclosed is a dual-robot position/force multivariate-data-driven method using reinforcement learning. A master robot adopts an ideal position meta-control strategy, learns a desired position by a reinforcement learning algorithm, and feeds back an actual position to a desired position, and a goal is to generate an optimal force while the robot interacts with the environment, as to minimize a position error; and a slave robot, based on a force meta-control strategy of position deviation of the master robot, adopts a damping proportional-derivative (PD) control strategy suitable for an unknown environment, and learns a desired acting force by the reinforcement learning algorithm, namely a minimum force for driving the slave robot to approach a desired reference point. The present invention may improve the dexterity of dual-robot collaboration, solve a parameter optimization problem in position/force control.

A human pilot controls a robotic arm and gripper by simulating a set of desired motions with the human hand. In at least one embodiment, one or more images of the pilot's hand are captured and analyzed to determine a set of hand poses. In at least one embodiment, the set of hand poses is translated to a corresponding set of robotic-gripper poses. In at least one embodiment, a set of motions is determined that perform the set of robotic-gripper poses, and the robot is directed to perform the set of motions.

The second robot includes a second hand section and a second control section. The second hand section is configured to be capable of holding another part of the work. The second control section is configured to be capable of selectively executing a first control mode that controls the second hand section and a second control mode that controls the second hand section by cooperating with the first hand section on the basis of the reference signal.

A robot system, a robot controller and a robot control method, by which a coordinated control of a plurality of robots can be taught while appropriately considering a positional deviation of each robot into consideration. A gripping misalignment of a first workpiece in a leading robot is detected, and then a first amount of correction for correcting the misalignment is calculated. Further, a gripping misalignment of a second workpiece in a following robot is detected, and then a second amount of correction for correcting the misalignment is calculated. In the coordinated control, a taught position/orientation of the leading robot is corrected based on the first amount of correction, and a taught position/orientation of the following robot is corrected based on both the first mount of correction and the second amount of correction.
