  • Patent number: 11014252
    Abstract: A robot system may include a robot controller; a target robot; and a host device. The target robot may include a first memory to store device specific data comprising information on the model of the target robot; individual identification data used to identify the target robot; and an individual difference parameter unique to the target robot. The robot controller may include a second memory to store information on the model of the target robot connected to the robot controller, the model configuration information, the individual identification data, and the individual difference parameter; and a controller to control the target robot on the basis of the model configuration information and the individual difference parameter stored in the second memory unit. The controller may read the model configuration information of the model and store the model configuration information in the second memory unit.

  • Publication number: 20100045982
    Abstract: A particle counting device 11 for detecting and counting particles in a fluid to be measured comprises a measuring section 13 for detecting particles and a control section 12 for processing the output signal from the measuring section 13. When an abnormality occurs, a signal to issue a warning is generated. With this, a constant monitoring or observation is possible. Also, a particle counting system comprising a plurality of particle counting devices 11 and an information processing device 17 for processing the results of the counting by the particle processing devices 11 is also provided. The plurality of particle counting devices 11 are electrically connected to the information processing device 17 in multiple and in parallel. Alternately, a particle counting system comprising a plurality of particle counting devices 11 for detecting and counting particles in a fluid to be measured is also provided.
