Test robot reproducing realistic hockey slap shot

Bauer

Hockey stick manufacturers wish to test their products for quality control and to help with the development of new models. However, there is currently no reliable and repeatable way of reproducing a slap shot that is representative of a real-life situation. Industrial robots currently used are poorly suited for this ...

Audio-visual recognition for mobile robot in manufacturing environments

À la recherche d'un partenaire

Security is a crucial issue in collaborative robotics. A robot must perceive its environment with precision to maximize its productivity without compromising the safety of the workers around it. Visual recognition is a popular modality, but it is often limited to a small field and involves a high computational load ...

Evaluation of the application of cable robots to monitoring processing stations.

Hydro Québec

The objective of the project is to evaluate the feasibility of applying the cable robot concept to monitoring Hydro-Québec's processing stations. The research will be conducted at two or three electrical processing stations that require automated monitoring. It will be necessary to determine the workspace that can be reached ...

Visual distinction of plants by machine learning

Vallons maraîchers

Manual weeding of root vegetables is a crucial task for frugal crop yields. However, it is an expensive, lengthy and difficult task for farmers. Desherbex aims at building a robotic farm equipment that can replace manual weeding. It implies that the tool must 1) distinguish weeds from root vegetables and ...

Development of a weight lifting device with multiple degrees of freedom

Arjo

Development of a weight lifting device with multiple degrees of freedom to bring the best force vector to a patient, either for patient transfer or for patient rehabilitation. The user is directly in contact with the robot. This device should be able to lift up to 600 lbs by hands ...

Compact gripper for limited space

Robotiq

The use of robot grippers in industrial applications can be difficult when space becomes a limiting factor. Although many robot gripper models are commercially available, they usually require a significant amount of space around to object to grab to properly operate. This is largely due to the approach angle of ...
