Patent ID: 10493625

Abstract:
The invention relates to a system for generating sets of control data for networked robots, comprising a plurality of robots (Ri), wherein i=1, 2, 3, . . . , n, and n≥2, an optimizer (OE) and a database (DB), which are networked via a data network, wherein each robot (Ri) includes at least: a control unit (SEi) for controlling and/or regulating the robot (Ri); a storage unit (SPEi) for controlling sets of control data SDi(Ak), which in each case enable the control of the robot (Ri) in accordance with a predetermined task (Ak), wherein k=1, 2, 3, . . . , m; a unit (EEi) for specifying a new task Am+1 for the robot (Ri), wherein Am+1≠Ak; a unit (EHi) for determining a set of control data SDi(Am+1) for execution of the task (Am+1) by the robot (Ri), an evaluation unit (BEi), which evaluates the set of control data SDi(Am+1) determined by the unit (EHi), with regard to at least one parameter (P1) with the characteristic number KP1(SDi(Am+1)), and a communication unit (KEi) for communication with the optimizer (OE) and/or the database (DB) and/or other robots (Rj≠i), the optimizer (OE), which is designed and configured in order to determine, upon request by a robot (Ri), at least one optimized set of control data SDi,P2(Am+1) with regard to at least one predetermined parameter (P2), wherein the request by the robot (Ri) occurs when the characteristic number KP1(SDi(Am+1)) does not meet a predetermined condition, and the data base (DB) stores the set of control data SDi,P2(Am+1) optimized by the optimizer (OE) and provides it to the robot (Ri) for execution of the task (Am+1).
