…servo motors, as seen in the example below from Doosan Robotics. In addition to increasing a system’s overall utility, machine vision can reduce the risks associated with the operation of robots. It enables robots to “see” their surroundings, thus enabling them to detect and avoid obstacles in real time. Developers and manufacturers implement motion control systems to ensure that robots move in a controlled and safe manner. Along with machine vision, technologies such as proximity and force sensors are playing an important role in improving robotics safety. Proximity sensors can detect the presence of objects in the robot's path and…
