Abstract: The present disclosure relates to cable routing approaches that allow cables to pass through a traditional chain joint without reducing the strength capacity or impairing the range of motion of the joint. The routing approaches permit the cables to be housed inside the structure of the robotic arm and pass through the chain joint in a manner that does not limit the width of the chain.

Abstract: A robot control system on a platform which can carry target objects employs a coordinate system including X, Y, and Z axes. A plane including the X and Y axis is parallel with a panel including the platform. After the coordinate system is created, a reminder is displayed and a guiding tool is placed in a position on the platform where the target objects are located, and a fastening tool for use with the guiding tool is arranged on hand of the robot. A location of the fastening tool relative to the guiding tool is adjusted according to a predefined rule. When the location of the fastening tool relative to the guiding tool is correctly adjusted, a position of the end effect of the robot is determined according to the location of the fastening tool and the relevant coordinates are stored as data.
