Deals with the problem of uncertainties in the nominal world model of a robot. In particular, the problem of analyzing unexpected situations in a 2D polygonal world is attacked. Such a situation analysis can be used to acquire information on a contact situation encountered during the execution of a motion. The analysis is based on the concept of so-called test motions, i.e. motions, the feasibility of which depends on the actual contact situation present. Using a probabilistic uncertainty model, the focus is on the computation of motion constraints due to contact and the resulting selection of an optimal test motion.< >

This paper presents ROSI-Layout, a computer aided planning system for the generation of suitable workcell layouts for robot assembly applications. The idea is to derive first the spatial transformations for the product parts, which lead to the assembly of the final product. A global database provides the product data and the precedence graph. This information comes from product design and assembly planning. The design of spatial transformations is derived from constraints given by the geometric shape of the product parts and from rules that define how assembly with robots should be accomplished. This is followed by the generation of a suitable layout. A layout can be developed that is specially designed for the product to be assembled. During the entire planning session, the database manages all planning data and ensures consisteny. ROSI-Layout is an extension of the RObot Simulation system ROSI.

A planning concept is proposed which meets the requirements of flexibility and simplicity of the resulting plan structures and efficiency of replanning. The concept is based on a heuristic search process (branch-and-bound) by which a plan generation tree containing (as nodes) the most promising solution graphs is partly developed. This is achieved by a heuristic evaluation function which estimates the quality of the intermediate plans during the plan synthesis phase. The concept is shown for the area of automatic assembly using a small assembly task as an example. A short description of a robot planning system which is based on the concept is included.< >

HEROS (hierarchically extendible real-time operating system), which was developed and implemented for the control and supervision of robots, is described. It allows the dynamic creation of processes and their management. The processes in HEROS have no knowledge of their mutual existence and possess no global kernel routines or variables. The interprocess communication and synchronization is accomplished through a channel mechanism, using simple and effective functional calls. The uncoupling of processes attained through the channel concept enables the tasks to be defined and implemented independently and to be operated in parallel. HEROS is composed of several clusters connected through a local area network (LAN). Each cluster consists of several conventional single-board computers, a global memory, and a network controller.< >

This paper describes a method to simulate vision for use in robot applications. Our approach shows the physical modeling of the camera, the light sources and the objects within the scene based on a geometric model. Many parameters of the physical model may be adjusted to obtain simulation results close to reality. For processing of the picture data the SPIDER program is added to the simulation of the camera. Though a complete vision system is created. An example shows the simulation of a CCD-camera and a scene with workpieces taken from the ‘European Benchmark’ [COL85].

A formal language for specifying and analyzing requirements is introduced. An integrated set of tools support the transition from ideas to a requirements specification. The system is implemented on an IBM PC. The special characteristics of the language and the tools are their suitability for the description of embedded real-timesystems. The most useful feature of the system is the possibility of graphical input and output as an alternative of the mere textual specification. Transformation between textual and graphical representation is done by the PROREC system.< >
