Abstract: A client device in a wireless network accesses a queue comprising Transmission Control Protocol Acknowledgement (TCP ACK) packets. At least some packets include packet descriptors with a flow identifier indicating a corresponding TCP flow, and a TCP ACK Generation Count. The device inspects a packet descriptor of a first TCP ACK packet, and identifies a first flow identifier and a first TCP ACK Generation Count. The device accesses entries in a data structure that each includes a first field and a second field respectively storing a flow identifier and a TCP ACK Generation Count. The device determines that a condition is satisfied, comprising that an entry in the data structure includes a flow identifier and a TCP ACK Generation Count matching the first flow identifier and the first TCP ACK Generation Count, respectively. In response to the determination, the device marks the first TCP ACK packet to be dropped.

Abstract: A gripping device for a robot for gripping objects, including at least two gripping units each having a gripping finger and being transferable by a controlled movement between a release position and a gripping position gripping an object, the gripping units each having gripper elements which, in the gripping position, can be brought into contact with the object to be gripped, in which the gripper elements are rotatably mounted on the gripping fingers of the gripping device.

Abstract: A simulation method of specifying a relative position between a first base of a first robot manipulator and a second base of a second robot manipulator, including: determining a first working area of the first robot manipulator, wherein the first working area determines a finite plurality of tuples from possible positions of the first end effector and possible orientations of the first end effector in respective positions of the first end effector; determining, for each of a specified plurality of possible relative positions between the first base and the second base, a number of the tuples from the first working area as evaluation variables, for which a second end effector is capable of being positioned in a predefined orientation and/or at a predefined distance relative to the first end effector; and determining and outputting the relative position between the first base and the second base with a highest evaluation variable.

Abstract: System and method of learning and executing mutually coordinated paths of robot manipulators, including: manually guiding a first reference point of a first robot manipulator over a desired first path, acquiring the first path or acquiring a first set of poses for the first path and storing the first path or the first set of poses in a first data set, automatically traveling along the first path according to the first data set, while automatically traveling along the first path, manually guiding a second reference point of a second robot manipulator over a desired second path, acquiring the second path or acquiring a second set of poses for the second path and storing the second path or the second set of poses in a second data set, wherein the second data set is assigned to the first data set so that a location of the first path is at least approximately assigned to each location of the second path, and traveling along the first path by the first robot manipulator according to the first data set synchronized

Abstract: A mobile robot including a mobile base element and at least one multi-jointed manipulator, wherein the robot includes several telemedical devices. The invention also relates to a robot for performing a movement sequence together with a limb of a human with the help of a manipulator.

Abstract: A light shade is presented for a modular lighting system, such as for example the Occhio® system of the applicant, with a coupling element for connection with a lamp support element, an at least translucent outer shade and a screen with zones of differing light transmittance within the outer shade, whereby the outer shade and the screen are each connected detachably and therefore optionally interchangeably with the coupling element.
