Appl. No.:

7/728926

Arthur Schleifer - Palo Alto CA
Joseph C. Roark - Los Altos CA
John S. Poole - Landenberg PA

Assignee:

International Classification:

G05B 1900

US Classification:

395 86

Abstract:

Methods of programming mechanical manipulators are disclosed that permit a mechanical manipulator to be programmed to perform coordinated motions between one or more modules comprised of equipment with which the manipulator will interact by defining an origin point and one or more frame points related to each of the modules relative to the origin point. Each of the modules associated with a frame point is then identified and a module program describing pre-programmed manipulator motions related to each of the modules is accessed. Finally, a sequence of motions between the origin and each of the frame points of the modules is defined. The step of locating frame points can be carried out in several different ways, using a teach pendant or by automatically locating the module frame points using an infrared sensor, electric field sensor, acoustic sensor, or force sensor. Methods of programming a mechanical manipulator to move between an origin point and one or more modules are also disclosed which comprise the steps of creating a programming element representative of each module and its corresponding module program. An origin frame point is again defined and the programming elements are assembled to correspond to one or more modules that represent the desired manipulator motion.

International Classification:

G06F 16/25

Abstract:

Systems and methods for implementing extensible attributes in ETL are disclosed. In some examples, attributes configured at a source file may be extracted from the source file. The extracted attributes can be mapped to a target column of a data warehouse table, and then a dynamic ETL script may be generated. The dynamic script may be executed to move data associated with the attributes to an appropriate new column of the data warehouse.
