  • Patent number: 11386289
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments related to robot-aided product inspection. For example, an inspection apparatus may include a processing device to communicatively couple to a robotic apparatus, to a display device, and to a user input device. The processing device may: receive an image of an item, wherein the image was captured by the robotic apparatus; generate a proposed classification for the image, wherein the classification indicates an attribute of the item based on the image; cause the image to be displayed on the display device along with the proposed classification; and receive an indication from the user input device of a final classification of the image.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20210129326
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments related to inspection planning using robotic systems. For example, an inspection apparatus may include a processing device to communicatively couple to a robotic apparatus. The processing device may generate an inspection path for the robotic apparatus to follow to inspect an item, the inspection path may include a set of positions of an end effector of the robotic apparatus, and the processing device may cause a camera of the end effector to capture an image of the item at each position.
