Abstract

The application of Human–Robot Collaboration (HRC) in the manufacturing sector, especially in the material handling process, is aimed at improving productivity through robots actively working alongside humans. In this condition, the robots need to understand how to handle the objects by themselves according to user preferences with an autonomous system. However, there have been challenges in the aspect of teaching robots to autonomously identify object grasp positions only using an RGB camera due to the effect of camera perspective on object visualization for robots. Therefore, this study aimed to propose a simplified method on an RGB camera for autonomous object grasping in the material handling process and implement it for the HRC concept. The method used a prototype robot manipulator with a computer vision system for object detection. During the execution of object grasping, the robot achieved a success rate of 86% for a single object and 76% for multiple objects. In the HRC concept, the robot achieved a success rate of 92% for placing objects one by one and 84% for placing objects continuously. The result also showed fast inference time when the robot in real-time detected the object, which was even just running on the CPU and in the planning process without complexity and requiring additional equipment aside from an RGB camera.

简化物料搬运过程中的自主物体抓取,实现人机协作
人机协作(HRC)在制造业中的应用,尤其是在材料处理过程中的应用,旨在通过机器人与人类一起积极工作来提高生产率。在这种情况下,机器人需要了解如何通过自主系统根据用户偏好自行处理物品。然而,由于摄像头视角对机器人物体可视化的影响,仅使用 RGB 摄像头教机器人自主识别物体抓取位置一直是个难题。因此,本研究旨在提出一种在材料处理过程中使用 RGB 摄像机自主抓取物体的简化方法,并将其应用于 HRC 概念。该方法使用带有计算机视觉系统的原型机器人机械手进行物体检测。在物体抓取过程中,机器人抓取单个物体的成功率为 86%,抓取多个物体的成功率为 76%。在 HRC 概念中,机器人逐个放置物体的成功率为 92%,连续放置物体的成功率为 84%。结果还显示,当机器人实时检测到物体时,推理时间很快,甚至只需在中央处理器上运行,在规划过程中,除了一个 RGB 摄像头外,无需复杂的额外设备。
