Abstract

We describe a robot programming system that generates programs for two dimensional assembly operations. A program is actually a network of "augmented compliant motion specifications" that describe how the robot must comply to the physical constraints imposed by the environment. The various representations, as well as the problem solving mechanisms used during the programming process have been inspired by the human way of dealing with assembly problems. The programming process results from the collaboration between several algorithmic modules and a reasoning mechanism that exploits rule bases of heuristics concerning different aspects of assembly problems. The system has been implemented completely on a personal workstation yielding very satisfactory performance.
