The intelligent scheduling system developed by Mairida allows robots to "understand" each other"

2023-02-15

 

The research and development project of "intelligent robot cluster scheduling system" undertaken by Hubei mairuida supply chain co., ltd. will enable logistics robots to transmit task instructions to each other and achieve "language communication". just like the communication between people, the process is completely realized by the mutual transmission of instructions between robots, which is very intelligent. The project was jointly developed by Merida and Wuhan University. Among them, Merida participated in the research and development of the control system of robots from different manufacturers.


After signing the project at the docking activity of scientific and technological achievements transformation in Wuhan Economic Development Zone last year, Mairida quickly set up a research and development team to tackle key technical problems. Since there is no mature precedent in China, combined with the map tool of Wuhan University for real-time mapping, the research and development team "crossed the river by feeling the stones" every day ".


"It is very difficult to communicate effectively between robots with different 'languages', just like letting a Wuhan person and a Shanghai person talk in dialect, which requires experienced 'translators' to interpret at the same time." So far, after more than 10 months of research and development work, the team members have been working day and night, forgetting to eat and sleep.


Before that, the robots working in a production workshop often came from different manufacturers, and the control systems of all kinds of robots were not completely the same, resulting in the instructions transmitted between the robots being "incomprehensible" to each other, thus unable to assign the next task, which greatly reduced the work efficiency of the robot cluster.


"After the research and development of the robot cluster scheduling system is completed, not only can the robots communicate with each other and issue instructions, but also the working state of the robots can be surveyed in real time through the assembly system to assign tasks to them, and the robots can be positioned so that the robots can accurately avoid obstacles and prevent collision when walking in the factory." The system only uses a set of control procedures can efficiently deploy the robot work on each post, and truly realize cost reduction and efficiency increase.


The intelligent robot cluster scheduling system belongs to the research and development work of the combination of software and hardware. At present, it has achieved the medium-term results of "language communication between logistics handling robots". The next step will be to complete "language communication between multi-category robots", which is expected to be completed next year. It is worth looking forward!
