Anti-collision system and anti-collision method

Abstract

An anti-collision system and an anti-collision method. An anti-collision system is used for preventing an object from colliding with an automatic robotic arm, wherein the automatic robotic arm comprises a controller, and the anti-collision system comprising: a first image sensor, configured to capture a first image; a vision processing unit, configured to receive the first image, recognize the object of the first image and estimate an object movement estimation path of the object; a processing unit, coupled to the controller to access an arm movement path, estimate an arm estimation path of the automatic robotic arm, analyze the first image to establish a coordinate system, and determine whether the object will collide with the automatic robotic arm according to the arm estimation path ofthe automatic robotic arm and the object movement estimation path of the object. As such, the anti-collision system and the anti-collision method can achieve the effect of preventing the object from colliding with the automatic robotic arm.

Description

Technical field [0001] This case is about an anti-collision system and an anti-collision method. In particular, it relates to an anti-collision system and an anti-collision method applied to a robotic arm. Background technique [0002] Generally speaking, a robot arm is a precision machine composed of a rigid body and a servo motor. Once an unexpected collision occurs, it will affect the precision of the operation of each axis of the robot arm, and may even damage the servo motor or components. Under the continuous structure of the components in the robotic arm, the replacement of components is often done in batches. The robotic arm after replacing the servo motor or components also needs to undergo precise testing and calibration before it can resume work. The maintenance cost and time are relatively other. The demand for precision machinery is much higher. [0003] In view of this, the effective prevention of servo motor damage can help reduce the maintenance cost of the robot ...

[0002] Generally speaking, a robotic arm is a precision machine composed of a rigid body and a servo motor. Once an unexpected collision occurs, it will affect the precision of each axis of the robotic arm, and may even damage the servo motor or components.

Under the continuous structure of each component in the robot arm, the replacement of parts and components is often replaced in batches. After replacing the servo motor or parts, the robot arm also needs to undergo precise testing and calibration before it can resume work. The maintenance cost and time are relatively low. Precision machinery will come much higher
