  • ENHANCED ROBOTIC CAMERA CONTROL
    Publication number: 20220395978
    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to robot camera control. A robotic device may receive a user input to control a camera operatively connected to the robot device; identify a live-motion filter applied to the camera; identify a filter setpoint associated with the live-motion filter; generate filtered position control data for the camera based on the user input, the live-motion filter, and the filter setpoint; generate joint data for the robot device based on the filtered position control data; and cause the camera to move according to the joint data.

  • ROBOTIC CONTROL FOR TOOL SHARPENING
    Publication number: 20220203541
    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to robotic control for tool sharpening. The device may determine a first location associated with a first cutting tool of the one or more cutting tools relative to the first container. The device may grip the first cutting tool based on the first location of the first cutting tool relative to the first container. The device may move the robotic device to one more scanning sensors. The device may collect three dimensional data. The device may extract a profile of the first cutting tool. The device may determine a top edge and a bottom edge based on the profile. The device may determine a tip of the first cutting tool. The device may generate a sharpening path based on the tip and the profile of the first cutting tool.
