Abstract: A vibration suppression device acquires a teaching position, computes a speed plan based on the acquired teaching position and a first acceleration/deceleration parameter, computes data related to deflection occurring during an acceleration/deceleration operation of a robot based on the teaching position and the speed plan, and acquires data indicating a posture at the teaching position. Further, a machine learning unit of the vibration suppression device estimates an acceleration/deceleration parameter with respect to the data related to the deflection and the data related to the posture using the data related to the deflection and the data related to the posture as input data.

Abstract: A rotary actuator has: one motor, two strain wave reduction gears disposed symmetrically on both sides of the motor, and one output shaft. The output rotation of the motor is reduced in speed at the same reduction ratio by the two strain wave reduction gears and is outputted from the output shaft to a load side. The first and second externally toothed gears of the first and second strain wave reduction gears are flexed into ellipsoidal shapes with 90 degrees shifted in phase, and are meshed with first and second internally toothed gears. The angle transmission errors of the first and second strain wave reduction gears transmitted to the output shaft are reduced by cancelling each other out in the output shaft. Reduced-speed output rotation that has the reduced angle transmission errors is outputted to the load side from the output shaft.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium contains an event processing control program for event processing that processes received event data in accordance with processing rules and outputs output data. The program causes a computer to execute a process that includes obtaining first assessment values pertaining to output data by the event processing for a first type of events, periodically by a first period.

The first and second received event data are received event data of the first type and of a second type different from the first type, respectively. A second filtering condition pertaining to the second received event data is set based on the correlation coefficient value and a first filtering condition that pertains to the first received data and is specified from the assessment values.
