Trends in novel manufacturing systems lead to an increased level of data availability and smart usage of these data. Nowadays, many approaches are available to use the data, but because of an increased flexibility of the systems the interaction between machines and humans has become a challenge. Humans have to browse through a huge amount of data, need knowledge about the machine and underlying algorithms...
In order to solve mobile manipulation problems, the efficient combination of task and motion planning is usually required. Moreover, the incorporation of physics-based information has recently been taken into account in order to plan the tasks in a more realistic way. In the present paper, a task and motion planning framework is proposed based on a modified version of the Fast-Forward task planner...
In this paper, an ontology-based approach to automatically generate control applications to handle diagnostic information of decentralized control devices is presented. Diagnostic possibilities of modern remote I/O devices are analyzed and software components in terms of function blocks to handle the specific diagnostic information are defined. After a detailed conceptual overview, the application...
One of the major investment for applying industrial robots in production resides in the software development, which is an interdisciplinary and heterogeneous engineering process. This paper presents a novel model-driven approach that uses AutomationML as modeling framework and ontological reasoning as inference framework for constructing robotic application using Robot Operating System (ROS). We show...
Industrial maintenance requires not only experienced service personnel to carry out the tasks but also up-to-date information about the target equipment and its environment. Accessing information required to execute the tasks is a common challenge for maintenance personnel. This paper presents a knowledge modeling approach and a technical architecture of a gateway system developed to support maintenance...
Within the Semantic Web field, Linked Data is an emerging technology offering advantages in terms of flexibility and openness also for industrial environments. It provides a powerful information model with simple extension mechanisms and a cross-domain character, which makes it possible to span flexible information spaces across enterprise boundaries. Thus, it is able to represent all facets of a...
In addition to the already required functionality, future production systems should consider the requirements of flexible and demand-oriented resource utilization. Those are not only related on fields of energy, but also material-efficient and time-efficient use of available means of production. Modular system architectures and modular solutions facilitate the planning and implementation of these...
The complexity and diversity of building automation systems (BAS) and the various faults that may happen in buildings make it very challenging to set up fault detection and diagnostics (FDD). This knowledge-intensive, expensive tasks urgently needs to be automated due to the limited time and budget available in this domain. A novel approach for computer-aided, automatic setup of FDD for BAS is described...
Modern machineries are becoming complex cyber-physical systems with increasingly intelligent support for process automation. For the dependability and performance, a combination of measures for fault avoidance, robust architecture, and runtime anomaly handling is necessary. These in turn call for a formalization of knowledge across different system lifecycle stages and a provision of novel methods...
This paper presents a semantic multimodal interaction approach between humans and industrial robots to enhance the dependability of the collaboration in real industrial settings. Although this generic approach can be applied in different industrial scenarios, this paper explains in detail how it is implemented in a real case to enhance the accuracy of requests interpretation in order to achieve a...
