  • System and method for organic cognitive response (OCR) feedback for adaptive work instructions
    Patent number: 11625636
    Abstract: A method includes obtaining multiple inputs associated with a worker in a manufacturing environment. The method also includes performing a fuzzy logic process on the multiple inputs to generate multiple outputs, where the multiple outputs are associated with performance by the worker of a task in the manufacturing environment. The method further includes providing instructions to an electronic device to display a specified output among the multiple outputs while the worker performs the task in the manufacturing environment, where the specified output includes instruction information for performing the task.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: April 11, 2023
    Assignee: Raytheon Company
    Inventors: Kristen M. Stone, James S. Neil
  • System and method for using virtual/augmented reality for interaction with collaborative robots in manufacturing or industrial environment
    Patent number: 11529737
    Abstract: A method includes determining a movement of an industrial robot in a manufacturing environment from a first position to a second position. The method also includes displaying an image showing a trajectory of the movement of the robot on a wearable headset. The displaying of the image comprises at least one of: displaying an augmented reality (AR) graphical image or video of the trajectory superimposed on a real-time actual image of the robot, or displaying a virtual reality (VR) graphical image or video showing a graphical representation of the robot together with the trajectory.
