With the latest Delta product release in Industrial Automation: the D-Bots, we are looking forward to providing reliable solutions that integrate the versatility of cobots with the robustness of our ToF cameras.
During your internship, you will be developing a sorting application demo kit to showcase the integration of point-cloud camera technology with cobots and the practical use of such an application.
Your task is to develop a library/API that can be used as a bridge between the camera and other products, then prove its functionality by implementing it in a sort & place application with one of our cobots.Design and Implementation Of Field Application Solution for D-Bot Sort & Place
System Design:
- The camera and cobot are set up in an eye-in-hand configuration.
- The cobot can be controlled via already existing Python API
- Programming language for the camera library/API is your choice. Both C/C++ and Python are accepted as long as a bridge between C/C++ and Python is created.
- Hardware design and implementation is already completed, but we do accept modifications if required.
- The camera must identify multiple different objects. Object detection method is your own choice.
- The camera must retrieve point cloud data.
- The system must be able to calculate future robot poses.
- The system must be able to reach the location of the detected object.
- The system must be able to pick up the object.
- The system must be able to drop the object in its corresponding place.
- The system must be expandable and interchangeable, meaning that it is possible to use other objects than the predefined ones after a training process.
- Learn about how we use our products to provide technological solutions (cobots, ToF Cameras and other related products) to our customers.
- Build and test an application as explained in the assignment above.
- Write technical documentation about the system.
- You are enrolled at a school during the whole duration of the internship.
- You are currently following a Bachelor program with strong knowledge and background in mechatronics or computer science.
- You have some basic knowledge of embedded software and communication protocol.
- Having some basic knowledge in PLC, HMI programming is a plus.
- You are enthusiastic about technological solutions in industrial automation.
