Anyone previously register ed needs to re-register for the new date***\n\nYuMi® - Creating an automa ted future together.\n\nThe new era of robotic co-workers is here. YuMi® is the result of years of research and development\, making collaboration between humans and robots a reality\, but it is also much more.\n\nABB has developed a collaborative\, dual arm\, small parts assembly robot solutio n that includes flexible hands\, parts feeding systems\, camera-based part location and state-of-the-art robot control. YuMi is a vision of the futu re. YuMi will change the way we think about assembly automation. YuMi is “you and me”\, working together to create endless possibilities.\n\nWi th the creation of collaborative robots—robots that can safely work dire ctly with humans due to their inherent safety—we have seen a dramatic sh ift in robot usage. Robots now work in many smaller scale laboratories and workshops\, instead of being confined to large factories\, and thus are o ften constantly reprogrammed to fulfill new tasks. In this setting\, the m ethod for programming must be quick and easy-to-use. In this presentation David will introduce a new programming interface for industrial robots tha t\, compared to traditional approaches\, is approximately 20% easier-to-us e\, 30% easier-to-learn\, and leaves users 35% more satisfied. We will see \, via live audience participation demonstrations\, just how easy it can b e to program an industrial robot.\n\nPlenty of free parking available at f ollowing locations adjacent to EB1 Building.\n[911 Partners Way\, Raleigh NC 27606](https://maps.google.com/?q=911+Partners+Way\,+Raleigh+NC+27606&e ntry=gmail&source=g) (EB1 entry)\n[1070 Partners Way\, Raleigh\, NC](https ://maps.google.com/?q=1070+Partners+Way\,+Raleigh\,+NC&entry=gmail&source= g) 27606 (Hunts library 0.2m away)\n[890 Oval Drive\, Raleigh\, NC 27606]( https://maps.google.com/?q=890+Oval+Drive\,+Raleigh\,+NC+27606&entry=gmail &source=g) (EB2 entry)\n\nSpeaker(s): David Shepherd\, \n\nAgenda: \n6:00 - 6:30 Food and networking\n6:30 - 7:30 YuMi lecture and Demo\n7:30 - 8:00 Q&A\n\nRoom: 1005\, Bldg: Engineering Building 1 (EB1)\, 911 Partners Way \, Raleigh\, North Carolina\, United States LOCATION:Room: 1005\, Bldg: Engineering Building 1 (EB1)\, 911 Partners Way \, Raleigh\, North Carolina\, United States ORGANIZER:rodriguesrostan@ieee.org SEQUENCE:32 SUMMARY:IEEE ENCS LECTURE (PELS+R&A) – Programming Collaborative Robots\, Including a Tutorial and Hands-on Demo of ABB’s YuMi Robot URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/176086 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><span style="color: #ff6600\;"><strong>*** This event has been rescheduled.
