Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the basics of machine vision and robotics in the manufacturing industry. Major applicability of intelligent machines and robotics in the manufacturing sector are explored in three major areas of product traceability, remote product-monitoring, supply chain, logistics, and product record management. Machine Vision and Industrial Robotics in Manufacturing: Approaches, Technologies, and Applications explains advanced technologies based on Artificial Intelligence and Industrial Internet of Things related to smart manufacturing applications. The book introduces the emerging machines and robotics applications that are enabling smart factories initiatives worldwide. The chapters examine labor productivity, factory device installation, and defective product detection. The authors share modern models, emerging technologies, designs, frameworks, theories, practices, and sustainable approaches to design and implement machine vision with industrial robotics. They also examine the challenging issues associated with the leveraging of technologies related to machine vision, computer vision, robotics, Internet of Things, Industrial Internet of Things technologies, Artificial Intelligence-equipped machines, applications, and automatic techniques for intelligent manufacturing systems and smart factory infrastructure in the era of Industry 4.0 manufacturing. The authors also examine topics such as the role of existing management and production solutions, their limitations, and future directions in manufacturing industry. This book targets a mixed audience of students, engineers, scholars, researchers, academics, and professionals who are learning, researching, and working in the field of machine vision, Artificial Intelligence, Industrial Internet of Things, computer vision, and robotic technologies from different industries and economics.
Download or read book Computer Vision and Sensor Based Robots written by George G. Dodd and published by Springer. This book was released on 1979-09 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal ofthe symposium, "Computer Vision and Sensor-Based Robots," held at the General Motors Research Laboratories on September 2S and 26, 1978, was to stimulate a closer interaction between people working in diverse areas and to discuss fundamental issues related to vision and robotics. This book contains the papers and general discussions of that symposium, the 22nd in an annual series covering different technical disciplines that are timely and of interest to General Motors as well as the technical community at large. The subject of this symposium remains timely because the cost of computer vision hardware continues to drop and there is increasing use of robots in manufacturing applications. Current industrial applications of computer vision range from simple systems that measure or compare to sophisticated systems for part location determination and inspection. Almost all industrial robots today work with known parts in known posi tions, and we are just now beginning to see the emergence of programmable automa tion in which the robot can react to its environment when stimulated by visual and force-touch sensor inputs. As discussed in the symposium, future advances will depend largely on research now underway in several key areas. Development of vision systems that can meet industrial speed and resolution requirements with a sense of depth and color is a necessary step.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Lester A. Gerhardt Professor and Chairman Electrical, Computer, and Systems Engineering Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Troy, New York 12180 This book is a collection of papers on the subject of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence. Most of the papers contained herein were presented as part of the program of the NATO Advanced Study Institute held in June 1983 at Castel vecchio Pascoli, Italy on the same subject. Attendance at this two week Institute was by invitation only, drawing people internationally representing industry, government and the academic community worldwide. Many of the people in attendance, as well as those presenting papers, are recognized leaders in the field. In addition to the formal paper presentations, there were several informal work shops. These included a workshop on sensing, a workshop on educational methodology in the subject area, as examples. This book is an outgrowth and direct result of that Institute and includes the papers presented as well as a few others which were stimulated by that meeting. A special note is the paper entitled "State-of-the-Art and Predictions for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics" by Dr. R. Nagel which appears in the Introduction and Overview chapter of this book. This paper was originally developed as part of a study for the United States Army performed by the National Research Council of the National Academy of Science and published as part of a report entitled "Applications of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence to Reduce Risk and Improve Effectiveness" by National Academy Press in 1983.
Download or read book Machine Intelligence written by A. Gomersall and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1981 Robotics Bibliography was published containing over 1,800 references on industrial robot research and development, culled from the scientific literature over the previous 12 years. It was felt that sensors for use with industrial robots merited a section and accordingly just over 200 papers were included. It is a sign of the increased research into sensors in production engineering that this bibliography on both the contact and non-contact forms has appeared less than three years after that first comprehensive collection of references appeared. In a reviell''; in 1975 Professor Warnecke of IPA, Stuttgart drew attention to the lack of sensors for touch and vision. Since then research workers in various companies, universities and national laboratories in the USA, the UK, Italy, Germany and Japan have concentrated on improving sensor capabilities, particularly utilising vision, artificial intelligence and pattern recognition principles. As a result many research projects are on the brink of commercial exploitation and development. This biblio graphy brings together the documentation on that research and development, highlighting the advances made in vision systems, but not neglecting the development of tactile sensors of various types. No bibliography can ever be comprehensive, but significant contributions from research workers and production engineers from the major industrialised countries over the last 12 years have been included.
