Seiko Epson has commercialized a “seeing, sensing, thinking, working” autonomous dual-arm robot that will expand the scope of automated production. The autonomous dual-arm robot WorkSense W-01 is developed for easy mobility so that it can be wheeled from place to place to perform assembly, transport, and other tasks.
Seeing: – The robot is equipped with 4 head-unit cameras and 2 arm-mounted cameras that give the robot human-like vision, enabling it to accurately detect an object’s position and orientation in three-dimensional space. And even if the location of objects and obstacles changes, the robot is able to independently “see” and determine their position.
