An articulated robot includes an arm, an actuator, a storage device, and a control device. The storage device stores the correction parameter for correction accuracy required for each of the multiple work regions, which are segmented as the regions in which work on the work target object is performed in the movable region of the robot arm. When the work is instructed with designation of the target position, the control device acquires, from the storage device, a correction parameter corresponding to a work region to which the designated target position belongs, among the multiple work regions. Then, the control device controls the actuator by correcting the target position using the acquired correction parameter.

A method and a device for ascertaining control parameters in a computer-assisted manner for handling a technical system is provided. A starting state and the surroundings of the technical system are detected using at least one sensor, and a physical simulation model of the technical system is generated using same. On the basis of the starting state, different combinations of handling steps of the technical system are simulated with respect to a specified target state using the simulation model, wherein control parameters of the technical system for carrying out the handling steps are varied. The simulation data is used to train a machine learning routine by an evaluation of each handling step, and the trained machine learning routine is used to ascertain an optimized combination of handling steps. The control parameters of the optimized combination of handling steps are output to control the technical system is also provided.

Methods and systems for modifying the inertial parameters used in a virtual robot model that simulates the interactions of a real-world robot with an environment to better reflect the actual inertial properties of the real-world robot. In one aspect, a method includes obtaining joint physical parameter measurements for the joints of a real-world robot, determining simulated joint physical parameter values for each of the joint physical parameter measurements, and adjusting an estimate of inertial properties of the real-world robot used by the virtual robot dynamic model to reduce a difference between the simulated joint physical parameter values and the corresponding joint physical parameter measurements.
