Apparatus for the operation of a robot
First Claim
1. An apparatus for operation of a robot having a product gripper, the apparatus comprising a display device and a computer, the apparatus designed to represent at least one approach position of the product gripper for picking up and/or placing down of a product as a graphical element on the display device,wherein the apparatus is designed to directly displace the graphical element on the display device for setting coordinates of the at least one approach position, with the coordinates of the at least one approach position being changed automatically in response to displacement of the graphical element, andwherein the apparatus controls the robot such that the product gripper of the robot adopts the at least one approach position after selection of the graphical element and before displacement of the graphical element to change the coordinates of the at least one approach position.

Abstract
The invention relates to an apparatus for the operation of a robot having a product gripper which is designed to represent at least one approach position of the product gripper for the picking up and/or placing down of a product, in particular of a food product, as a graphical element on a display device. The apparatus is designed so that the respective graphical element can be directly displaced on the display device for the setting of the coordinates of the respective approach position, with the coordinates of the respective approach position being changed automatically in response to such a displacement of the graphical element in accordance with the displacement.

10. An apparatus for operation of a robot and in combination with the robot, the apparatus comprising:
-
a display device; the robot having a product gripper; and a computer; the apparatus designed to represent at least one approach position of the product gripper for picking up and/or placing down of a product as a graphical element on the display device, wherein the apparatus is designed to directly displace the graphical element on the display device for setting coordinates of the at least one approach position, with the coordinates of the at least one approach position being changed automatically in response to displacement of the graphical element, and wherein the apparatus controls the robot such that the product gripper of the robot adopts the at least one approach position after selection of the graphical element and before displacement of the graphical element to change the coordinates of the at least one approach position.

11. A method for the operating of a food-handling robot having a product gripper, comprising:
-
displaying a graphical element on a display device, wherein at least one approach position of the product gripper for the picking up and/or placing down of a product is represented as the graphical element on a display device, wherein the graphical element is directly displaced on the display device for setting coordinates of the at least one approach position, with the coordinates of the at least one approach position being changed automatically in response to displacement of the graphical element, receiving inputs at the display device for selection and displacement of the graphical element; and controlling the product gripper of the robot in accordance with the received selection and movement of the graphical element at the display device, wherein the product gripper of the robot adopts the at least one approach position after receiving the input for selection of the graphical element and before receiving the input for displacement of the graphical element to change the coordinates of the at least one approach position. - View Dependent Claims (12)
