  • Publication number: 20230356394
    Abstract: Disclosed are a robot arm control method, a skin surface treatment apparatus, and a computer-readable memory medium, which relate to the field of mechanical control. the robot arm control method includes steps of: demarcating a to-be-treated surface of an object treated by a robot arm into at least two areas of interest; obtaining, by a three-dimensional scanning device, a three-dimensional point cloud corresponding to each area of interest; optimizing respective three-dimensional point clouds; merging the respective three-dimensional point clouds to obtain an executive point cloud; creating a motion path for the robot arm based on the executive point cloud; and performing, by the robot arm, a treatment to the surface of the object based on the motion path. Compared with conventional technologies, the disclosure has a better cost-effectiveness, an enhanced treatment efficiency, and an improved apparatus safety.

  • Patent number: 11468045
    Abstract: Techniques of transaction support for a database are disclosed herein. One example technique includes generating a new version value for key-value pairs in the database and creating, in the database, a new key-value pair corresponding to a parameter to be updated with a new value using both the generated new version value and a name of the parameter as a key and the new value as the corresponding value for the created new key-value pair. The example technique can then include determining whether creating the new key-value pair is completed successfully in the database, and in response to determining that creating the new key-value pair corresponding to the parameter is not completed successfully, the existing value of the parameter is returned as a current value of the parameter instead of the new value in response to a query for the current value of the parameter.
