Abstract

L'invention concerne un système d'entraînement robotique permettant un transfert de compétences intuitif par démonstration humaine à l'aide de dispositifs appariés, permettant à des robots d'effectuer des tâches de manipulation complexes nécessitant traditionnellement une importante programmation manuelle ou des configurations matérielles coûteuses. Des dispositifs robotiques meneurs sont configurés pour la manipulation humaine et des dispositifs robotiques suiveurs répliquent les mouvements du meneur. Des capteurs de force, des capteurs de couple ou des capteurs de force et de couple mesurent et traitent des données de force, des données de couple ou des données de force et de couple afin d'enregistrer des démonstrations d'entraînement pour des modèles d'intelligence artificielle (IA). Des dispositifs de démonstration comprennent des interfaces de commande d'utilisateur, de multiples points de vue d'espace de travail, une modification de mouvement pour rétroaction haptique et des outils effecteurs d'extrémité interchangeables. Un système de commande permet des transitions automatiques entre la commande de position et de force sur la base d'interactions détectées, tout en incorporant les principe appris à partir de démonstrations avec des données visuelles et de force. L'invention concerne des procédés de programmation robotique permettant d'exploiter des données de démonstration, de générer des descriptions en langage naturel d'actions et de narratifs lisibles par l'homme de programmes de robot. Le système fournit une solution complète et peu coûteuse pour l'apprentissage robotique à partir de la démonstration humaine.

Abstract

A robotic training system enabling intuitive skill transfer through human demonstration using paired devices, allowing robots to perform complex manipulation tasks traditionally requiring extensive manual programming or expensive hardware setups. Leader robotic devices configured for human manipulation and follower robotic devices replicate the leader's movements. Force sensors, torque sensors, or force-torque sensors measure and process force data, torque data, or force-torque data for recording training demonstrations for artificial intelligence (AI) models. Demonstration devices include user control interfaces, multiple workspace viewpoints, motion modification for haptic feedback, and interchangeable end effector tools. A control system enables automatic transitions between position and force control based on sensed interactions, while incorporating learned policies from demonstrations with visual and force data. Methods for robot programming leverage demonstration data, generating natural language descriptions of actions and human-readable narratives of robot programs. The system provides a comprehensive, low-cost solution for robot learning from human demonstration.
