  • Patent number: 11826900
    Abstract: A manipulation device and a manipulation system of a simpler configuration. A manipulation device includes an input part configured to receive an input of an operational instruction by an operator in order to operate a manipulating target, and a speaker configured to receive a signal based on vibration detected at the manipulating target and generate vibration based on the received signal. The vibration generated by the speaker is transmitted to the operator through at least a part of the input part.

  • Patent number: 11738468
    Abstract: A robot system includes a robot configured to perform a work to a workpiece, and a user interface configured to remotely manipulate the robot. The robot includes a robotic arm, a robot hand attached to the robotic arm and configured to perform the work to the workpiece, and an acceleration sensor attached to the robot hand. The robot system further includes a speaker configured to output an acceleration signal from the acceleration sensor as perceptual information.

  • Patent number: 11358286
    Abstract: A robot system includes a user interface configured to receive an operational instruction from an operator, a robot installed in a workspace and configured to perform a series of works including a plurality of processes, a sensor installed in the workspace, a transparent type display unit configured so that the operator is visible of a physical real world and configured to display information detected by the sensor as the image screen, and a control device. The control device displays on the transparent type display unit, when the robot is operated by the user interface, first information that is information detected by the sensor, as the image screen.

  • Publication number: 20220063095
    Abstract: A robot system includes a slave unit including a slave arm having a working end, a slave arm actuator configured to drive the slave arm, and a slave-side controller configured to control the slave arm actuator based on a slave operating command for defining a target position of the working end, a master unit including a master arm having a manipulation end into which the content of manipulation is inputted by an operator, and a system controller configured to generate the slave operating command based on the content of manipulation inputted into the manipulation end. When a command corresponding to the content of manipulation is a command corresponding to a limit equivalent range corresponding to a limit of operation of at least one of the slave arm and the master arm, the system controller performs processing to give perception to the operator.

  • Patent number: 11221642
    Abstract: A manipulating device includes a base part, a user interface disposed above the base part and having a movable part and a grip part, a parallel link mechanism having a pair of arm parts and a pair of link parts, a position sensor configured to detect a position of a base-end part of the arm part, and a controller configured to control at least one of a position and a posture of a robot based on the position detected by the position sensor. The arm part is rotatably connected at a base-end part to the base part, the link part is rotatably connected at a base-end part to the arm part, and is rotatable connected at a tip-end part to the movable part, and the base part is coupled to the movable part through three sets of parallel link mechanisms with six degrees of freedom.
