  • Patent number: 8838272
    Abstract: A robotic arm control system is provided. In, the robotic arm control system, any three points A, B, and C of an object to be determined are picked, thereby creating an original coordinate system. A robotic arm is directed to rotate around the x-axis of the original coordinate system to reach the points B and C. During the rotation of the robotic arm, the three points A, B, and C are recorded by a visual process. A non-linear mapping relation of the original coordinate system and the operation coordinate system is calculated according to length ratios, an angular ratio, and a differential ratio of the difference of the length ratios to the angle between the line A-B and the line A-C, thereby controlling the movement of the robotic arm according to the non-linear mapping relation. The disclosure further provides a robotic arm control method.

  • Patent number: 8650329
    Abstract: An exemplary port reducing method is for removing unselected ports of an original S-parameter file and generating an optimized S-parameter file. The method controls a display unit to display a user interface to receive commands from a user in response to user operation; the commands comprise a calling command, a selecting command, and an executing command. The method obtains the original S-parameter file in response to the calling command. Next, the method determines which of the ports of the original S-parameter file are unselected in response to the selecting command, and connects each unselected port to the ground through one terminal impedance. The method then generates an optimized S-parameter file that comprises only the selected ports in response to the executing command.

  • Publication number: 20130083175
    Abstract: In a method for controlling motion of a mechanical arm, the method moves the mechanical arm horizontally or vertically so that an image capturing device of the mechanism arm focuses on an object. The contours of the object are analyzed, and a central area of the object is established. By making the center of the image area of the image capturing device coincide with the center area of the object at least twice, the method records two positions of the mechanical arm, and calculates a total apparent displacement value of the object and a distance between the object and camera lens of the image capturing device according to the first position, the second position of the mechanical arm and the total apparent displacement value of the object. The method ensures accurate positioning of the mechanical arm.

  • Publication number: 20130013962
    Abstract: In a method for analyzing integrality of serial attached SCSI (SAS) signals using a computing device, the computing device connects to a signal measuring device and an electronic device. A group of test parameters, an intensity grade of a SAS signal, and a total number are set for evaluating integrality of the SAS signal. The intensity grade of the SAS signal is adjusted through an SAS interface of the electronic device. The signal measuring device measures test parameters of the SAS signal, and a test number is recorded when the test parameters of the SAS are measured. The method analyzes the integrality of the SAS signal to find an optimal SAS signal when the test number equals the total number, and determines an intensity grade of the optimal SAS signal as a driving parameter of the SAS interface.
