  • Shape detection system
    Patent number: 8660697
    Abstract: A shape detection system includes a distance image sensor that detects an image of a plurality of detection objects and distances to the detection objects, the detection objects being randomly arranged in a container, a sensor controller that detects a position and an orientation of each of the detection objects in the container on the basis of the result of the detection performed by the distance image sensor and a preset algorithm, and a user controller that selects the algorithm to be used by the sensor controller and sets the algorithm for the sensor controller.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 18, 2010
    Date of Patent: February 25, 2014
    Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Yaskawa Denki
    Inventors: Hiroyuki Handa, Takeshi Arie, Yuji Ichimaru
