  • Method of handling safety of industrial robot, control system and robot system
    Patent number: 12691581
    Abstract: A method of handling safety of an industrial robot of a robot system, the method including providing at least one virtual safety border defined in relation to the industrial robot, where each virtual safety border is associated with a condition to be fulfilled by the industrial robot; for each virtual safety border, performing an indication operation by the robot system, where the indication operation indicates a position of the virtual safety border in a physical workspace of the industrial robot; and for each indication operation, receiving a verification input from a user. A control system and a robot system are also provided.
    Type: Grant

  • Methods of Handling Safety of Industrial Robot, Control Systems, and Robot System
    Publication number: 20240391104
    Abstract: A method of handling safety of an industrial robot, the method including providing at least one virtual safety border defined in relation to the industrial robot, where each virtual safety border is associated with a condition to be fulfilled by the industrial robot; obtaining environment data of a physical environment of the industrial robot by means of an environment sensor; determining, by a control system, an obstacle position of an obstacle in the environment based on the environment data; and evaluating, by the control system, a border position of each virtual safety border with regard to the obstacle position. Control systems for handling safety of an industrial robot in an environment, and a method including defining at least one virtual safety border in relation to the industrial robot based on the environment data, are also provided.
