Robotic Assembly Of A Mesh Surface

View page
US Patent:
20210073445, Mar 11, 2021
Filed:
Nov 24, 2020
Appl. No.:
17/103606
Inventors:
- San Rafael CA, US
David Thomasson - Fairfax CA, US
Maurice Ugo Conti - Muir Beach CA, US
Heather Kerrick - Oakland CA, US
Nicholas Cote - San Francisco CA, US
International Classification:
G06F 30/23
B25J 9/16
Abstract:
A robotic assembly cell is configured to generate a physical mesh of physical polygons based on a simulated mesh of simulated triangles. A control application configured to operate the assembly cell selects a simulated polygon in the simulated mesh and then causes a positioning robot in the cell to obtain a physical polygon that is similar to the simulated polygon. The positioning robot positions the polygon on the physical mesh, and a welding robot in the cell then welds the polygon to the mesh. The control application captures data that reflects how the physical polygon is actually positioned on the physical mesh, and then updates the simulated mesh to be geometrically consistent with the physical mesh. In doing so, the control application may execute a multi-objective solver to generate an updated simulated mesh that meets specific design criteria.

Agent-Based Slicing

View page
US Patent:
20200401105, Dec 24, 2020
Filed:
Sep 8, 2020
Appl. No.:
17/015000
Inventors:
- San Rafael CA, US
David THOMASSON - Fairfax CA, US
Maurice Ugo CONTI - Muir Beach CA, US
Heather KERRICK - Oakland CA, US
Nicholas COTE - San Francisco CA, US
Hui LI - San Francisco CA, US
International Classification:
G05B 19/4099
B22D 23/00
B33Y 50/00
Abstract:
An agent engine allocates a collection of agents to scan the surface of an object model. Each agent operates autonomously and implements particular behaviors based on the actions of nearby agents. Accordingly, the collection of agents exhibits swarm-like behavior. Over a sequence of time steps, the agents traverse the surface of the object model. Each agent acts to avoid other agents, thereby maintaining a relatively consistent distribution of agents across the surface of the object model over all time steps. At a given time step, the agent engine generates a slice through the object model that intersects each agent in a group of agents. The slice associated with a given time step represents a set of locations where material should be deposited to fabricate a 3D object. Based on a set of such slices, a robot engine causes a robot to fabricate the 3D object.

Robotic Augmentation Of Creative Tasks

View page
US Patent:
20200264583, Aug 20, 2020
Filed:
May 4, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/866442
Inventors:
- San Rafael CA, US
David Thomasson - Fairfax CA, US
Maurice Ugo Conti - Muir Beach CA, US
Heather Kerrick - Oakland CA, US
International Classification:
G05B 19/402
G05B 19/18
Abstract:
A robot is configured to assist an end-user with creative tasks. While the end-user modifies the work piece, the robot observes the modifications made by the end-user and determines one or more objectives that the end-user may endeavor to accomplish. The robot then determines a set of actions to perform that assist the end-user with accomplishing the objectives.

Robotic Camera Control Via Motion Capture

View page
US Patent:
20200030986, Jan 30, 2020
Filed:
Sep 30, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/588972
Inventors:
- San Rafael CA, US
David Thomasson - Fairfax CA, US
Maurice Ugo Conti - Muir Beach CA, US
Heather Kerrick - Oakland CA, US
International Classification:
B25J 9/16
G06T 7/246
G05D 1/00
G06F 3/03
B25J 19/02
G06K 9/00
H04N 5/232
Abstract:
A motion capture setup records the movements of an operator, and a control engine then translates those movements into control signals for controlling a robot. The control engine may directly translate the operator movements into analogous movements to be performed by the robot, or the control engine may compute robot dynamics that cause a portion of the robot to mimic a corresponding portion of the operator.

Optical Measurement Of Object Location In Three Dimensions

View page
US Patent:
20190337161, Nov 7, 2019
Filed:
Jul 16, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/513548
Inventors:
- San Rafael CA, US
David THOMASSON - San Francisco CA, US
Heather KERRICK - San Rafael CA, US
Maurice CONTI - Muir Beach CA, US
International Classification:
B25J 13/08
H04N 5/225
Abstract:
One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for determining a location of an object that is being manipulated or processed by a robot. The technique includes capturing a digital image of the object while the object is disposed by the robot within an imaging space, wherein the digital image includes a direct view of the object and a reflected view of the object, detecting a visible feature of the object in the direct view and the visible feature of the object in the reflected view, and computing a first location of the visible feature in a first direction based on a position of the visible feature in the direct view. The technique further includes computing a second location of the visible feature in a second direction based on a position of the visible feature in the reflected view and causing the robot to move the object to a processing station based at least in part on the first location and the second location.

Closed-Loop Robotic Deposition Of Material

View page
US Patent:
20180304550, Oct 25, 2018
Filed:
Apr 24, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/495945
Inventors:
- San Rafael CA, US
David THOMASSON - Fairfax CA, US
Maurice Ugo CONTI - Muir Beach CA, US
Heather KERRICK - Oakland CA, US
Nicholas COTE - San Francisco CA, US
International Classification:
B29C 67/00
B23K 9/04
B25J 11/00
B33Y 10/00
B33Y 50/02
G05B 19/29
Abstract:
A robot system is configured to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) objects using closed-loop, computer vision-based control. The robot system initiates fabrication based on a set of fabrication paths along which material is to be deposited. During deposition of material, the robot system captures video data and processes that data to determine the specific locations where the material is deposited. Based on these locations, the robot system adjusts future deposition locations to compensate for deviations from the fabrication paths. Additionally, because the robot system includes a 6-axis robotic arm, the robot system can deposit material at any locations, along any pathway, or across any surface. Accordingly, the robot system is capable of fabricating a 3D object with multiple non-parallel, non-horizontal, and/or non-planar layers.
