Implementation of Heterogeneous Multirobotic Cell Control Using Visualization Techniques

Abstract

The article is focused on the use of progressive techniques in the process of design and implementation of a heterogeneous multirobotic cell control system. The task of visualization as a modern approach to the creation of applications for industrial automation is presented. The way of using the visual approach in the creation of the robotic cell workspace monitoring system and the identification of work parts based on machine vision is declared. Visual programming in the form of Stateflow diagrams is also used for the creation of a superior control system based on PLC. Visualization techniques are also used in the process of multirobotic cell operation control by a web-oriented application using augmented reality. The article provides a comprehensive view of the representation of visualization techniques in design process of applications for industrial automation on a specific implementation example.
