Abstract :
An artificial intelligence cell which can accommodate flexible assembly tasks has been developed. The system comprises a Fanuc S-Model-0 Robot, and a vision system that uses artificial intelligence, located at the robot end-effector. Overall control of the system is provided by an expert system which makes decisions based on the data acquired and processed by the vision system. From the data the system can generate sequential smooth motions to pick up the components in any order, and to assemble them in the right sequence
