Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A robot apparatus includes a gripping unit configured to grip a first component, a force sensor configured to detect, as detection values, a force and a moment acting on the gripping unit, a storing unit having stored therein contact states of the first component and a second component and transition information in association with each other, a selecting unit configured to discriminate, on the basis of the detection values, a contact state of the first component and the second component and select, on the basis of a result of the discrimination, the transition state stored in the storing unit, and a control unit configured to control the gripping unit on the basis of the transition information selected by the selecting unit.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A robot for assembling a first component with a second component, the robot comprising: a manipulator unit capable of turning and bending; a gripping unit coupled to the manipulator unit; and a force sensor configured to detect, as detection values, a force and a moment acting on the gripping unit, wherein: the gripping unit is controlled by a control unit based on the detection values and a transition information, and the transition information includ…
