  • Patent number: 12271207
    Abstract: A method for controlling a plurality of autonomous robots for performing environment maintenance operations includes: generating a setup command that indicates a selected location, a plurality of selected robots, an available time slot, and a distribution mode signal that indicates whether the selected robots are to be controlled based on the available time slot or an inputted priority section; and generating a plurality of sub-routes based on different parameters, depending on the distribution mode signal. The sub-routes are generated to be connected into an unbroken trail. Then, the sub-routes are transmitted to the selected robots, respectively, so as to control each of the selected robots to move along the respective one of the sub-routes.

  • Publication number: 20240045442
    Abstract: A method for controlling a plurality of mobile robots is to be implemented by a server that communicates with the plurality of mobile robots and a communication device. The server stores a predetermined working route related to a target area. The method includes steps of: receiving a working instruction from the communication device, the working instruction including area information related to the target area and an input quantity of mobile robots; in response to receipt of the working instruction, dividing the predetermined working route into a plurality of sub-routes, wherein a quantity of the sub-routes equals the input quantity of mobile robots; and sending the sub-routes respectively to a plurality of selected robots that are selected from among the plurality of mobile robots to make the selected robots cooperatively implement a task on the target area by moving along the sub-routes, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20230359219
    Abstract: A robot system is used to trace and record boundaries of multiple sites, and data of the recorded boundaries are transmitted to a server for storage therein. The server computes moving paths for the sites based on the data of the recorded boundaries. Upon receipt of a setting signal from a mobile device that indicates a selected robot and a target site, the server transmits a maintenance instruction that includes the boundary and the moving path for the target site to the selected robot, so that the selected robot performs maintenances on the target site based on the maintenance instruction.

  • Patent number: 11754472
    Abstract: A process diagnosis system includes a digital twin calculation unit, a process diagnosis calculation unit, and a remote calculation analysis unit. The digital twin calculation unit obtains a vibration-related parameter and a cutting-related parameter of a processing device, and performs a simulation calculation for the vibration-related parameter, the cutting-related parameter and a three-dimensional model corresponding to the processing device to generate a three-dimensional calculation result. The process diagnosis calculation unit receives a three-dimensional calculation result and displays the three-dimensional calculation result. The remote calculation analysis unit receives the three-dimensional calculation result, and performs a simulation analysis for the three-dimensional calculation result to generate an analysis result.

  • Publication number: 20230280752
    Abstract: A method for preventing a robot from colliding with another robot that is provided with an identifying image includes steps of: controlling the robot to move along a predetermined path; stopping the robot when it is determined that a first image captured by the robot while the robot is moving contains the identifying image; and controlling the robot to resume moving along the predetermined path when it is determined that a second image captured by the robot while the robot is not moving does not contain the identifying image.
