Organizer: George Zhang (ABB Corporate Research Center, USA)
This workshop mainly focuses on state of the art on industrial robotics and manufacturing automation. Topics could include robotic automation for inspection, assembly, machining and finishing, food processing, process optimization and other related areas. Emerging robotic technology such as force control, vision-guided motion, off-line programming and simulation and their applications will be presented and discussed. Besides algorithm and technology discussion, applications such as windshield glass quality inspection, engine head decking, torque converter assembly, turbine blade grinding, and laptop cover deburring and finishing may be employed as real-world examples. Pictures, videos and PC simulations of industrial robotics and automation systems may be used to enhance the presentation and discussion.
Proposed Topics:
The Rise of the Consumer Robotics Industry - Applications of Biomimetic Robots(Louis Ross, Virtus Advanced Sensors, USA)
A Review of Force Control for Industrial Applications at Case Western Research University (Jeremy Marvel, Case West Reserve University, USA)
