Interface Communication Set up Tutorial Part 1: Communication Modes
This video introduces the two communication modes being used in the Mech-Mind Vision System. The two communication modes are Master-Control Communication and Interface Communication. This video also introduces three application scenarios where we can apply Standard Interface Communication. Lastly, this video shows the essential steps to perform pick and place on a YASKAWA robot using Standard Interface Communication. -
Interface Communication Set up Tutorial Part 2: Robot Interface Configuration (Standard Interface Communication)
This video shows how to load program files into a YASKAWA robot to establish a connection between the robot and the Mech-Mind Vision System -
Interface Communication Set up Tutorial Part 3: Hand-Eye Calibration (Standard Interface Communication)
In this video, you will learn how to perform hand-eye calibration to obtain the transformation between the camera and the YASKAWA robot’s reference frames. This transformation aids the robot in accurately locating objects based on the camera’s perspective. -
Interface Communication Set up Tutorial Part 4: Workpiece Locating
In this video, you will learn how to utilize a pre-built solution from Mech-Vision’s solution library to locate workpieces. The objective of workpiece locating is to guide the robot in picking them up accurately. (In this tutorial, we use the method of capturing scene point clouds to make a model.) -
