Abstract: An industrial robot system including a first robot. The first robot includes a first manipulator with a base and a tool movable in relation to the base about a plurality of axes, and a first primary controller having a primary robot functionality, the primary robot functionality including control of manipulator motion. The industrial robot system further includes a plurality of secondary controllers, each having a secondary robot functionality, wherein the primary robot functionality is different from all of the secondary robot functionalities, and wherein an overall robot functionality is defined by the primary robot functionality and one or more secondary robot functionalities.

Abstract: A method and a device for verifying one or more safety volumes for a movable mechanical unit positioned in an environment, wherein a world-coordinate system is defined in relation to the mechanical unit and in relation to the environment of the mechanical unit. The method includes storing a description of one or more safety volumes defined in relation to the world-coordinate system, and repeatedly determining position and orientation of a portable display unit in relation to the world-coordinate system, determining a graphical representation of the safety volumes based on the description of the safety volumes and the position and orientation of the portable display unit, overlaying the graphical representation of the safety volumes on a view of the real mechanical unit and its environment to provide a composited augmented reality image, and displaying the augmented reality image on the portable display unit.
