  • Patent number: 11951632
    Abstract: A robotic system includes a robot driven using a battery as a power supply source, and a control device configured to control the robot. The control device executes a setting process of making the robot repeatedly execute a first operation from when the battery is fully charged to when an output voltage of the battery becomes not higher than a predetermined threshold value, and setting a number of times the robot executes the first operation in a range in which the output voltage of the battery is higher than the threshold value as a first upper-limit number of times which is an upper limit of a number of times the robot can be made to execute the first operation in a period from when the battery is fully charged to when the battery is recharged.

  • Patent number: 8998365
    Abstract: A printing method that forms images by arranging liquid material on a target print medium in such a manner that liquid droplets is discharged from discharge nozzles while relatively moving a discharge head, which is provided with the discharge nozzles that discharge the liquid material as the liquid droplets, and the target print medium, includes storing a shape pattern of the target print medium, detecting at least one piece of positional information for the target print medium, calculating a shape of the target print medium by comparing the detected positional information with the shape pattern, and calculating a distance between a nozzle surface and a target printing surface from the shape, and landing the liquid droplets onto the target printing surface by controlling landing positions of the liquid droplets depending on the distance between the nozzle surface and the target printing surface.
