Integration of an Industrial Robot with the Systems for Image and Voice Recognition

Abstract

The paper reports a solution for the integration of the industrial robot ABB IRB140 with the system for automatic speech recognition (ASR) and the system for computer vision. The robot has the task to manipulate the objects placed randomly on a pad lying on a table, and the computer vision system has to recognize their characteristics (shape, dimension, color, position, and orientation). The ASR system has a task to recognize human speech and use it as a command to the robot, so the robot can manipulate the objects.
