Review of robotic manipulators and identification of the main problems

Abstract

One of the main elements of automation of industrial enterprises is the use of robotic systems consisting of mechanical manipulators and control systems. In recent years, the market of service robotics has been actively developing. The main part of the market of professional service robots in value terms is occupied by medical devices. Agriculture and logistics are also actively developing areas. The success of the automation systems implementation depends on the solution of complex scientific and technical problems, primarily in the following areas: machine vision; sensor networks; navigation systems. Thus, one of the fundamental problems, the solution of which largely depends on the success in creating the perfect adaptive and intelligent robots, is the use of such types of sensors of sensory information, which allow obtaining a sufficiently large amount of information about the problem environment in a short time. This is a problem of creating means of perception.
