  • Patent number: 12005532
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses of a welding system are disclosed and include a first stage of a scanning device for scanning weld parts to generate a three-dimensional (3D) profile of a weld target wherein the 3D profile captures matching imperfections of a meeting together of the set of weld parts when performing the weld operation; and the second stage of a monitoring device to monitor the weld operation and to generate a data of high-resolution measurements of the weld operation; wherein the first stage further includes the monitoring device determining a weld schedule based on the 3D profile, and to adjust the weld schedule while the weld operation progresses to adapt to predicted distortion based on the 3D profile and to sensed distortion; wherein the second stage further includes a plurality of sensors to sense a set of components associated with the weld operation to generate high-resolution data of measurements.

  • Patent number: 12005569
    Abstract: A moisture intrusion detection system includes: an industrial robot that has a closed space defined thereinside; an air supply mechanism that supplies compressed air to the closed space; an air vent passage that is provided in the industrial robot to establish communication between an external space outside the industrial robot and the closed space, and guides, to the external space, air ejected from the closed space upon supply of the compressed air; a humidity sensor that detects a humidity of ejected air that is ejected from the air vent passage to the external space upon supply of the compressed air; and a controller that determines presence or absence of moisture intruding into the closed space based on a detected humidity of the ejected air, the detected humidity being detected by the humidity sensor.

  • Patent number: 12005574
    Abstract: A system may comprise a control device configured to receive user inputs and a manipulator system including an actuator configured to receive and drive a steerable device. The system may also comprise a control system communicatively coupled to the manipulator system. The control system may be configured to track a virtual user-instructed position based on a first user input, determine a device position of a portion of the steerable device, and determine a position discrepancy in a first direction between the determined device position and the virtual user-instructed position. The control system may also be configured to receive a second user input commanding motion of the steerable device in a second direction, opposite the first direction. In response to the second user input, the position discrepancy may be reduced based on an aspect of the second user input and a catch-up profile.
