The demand for robot-based automation of pick-and-place applications in logistics, warehousing, commissioning or packaging is high. If the objects to be processed vary greatly in shape, size, colour, or position, either complex teach-in procedures are required – or the challenge is solved with intelligent image processing software.
This can help robots to reliably identify even unknown objects and find the best gripping positions for picking. On July 20th, the IDS Vision Channel will discuss what is technically possible and practical.
