Better gripping with intelligent picking robots Researchers from Germany and Canada work on new AI methods for picking robots. In the research project FLAIROP, the robots are trained with different articles in separate locations. The weights from all stations are collected and optimized using various criteria. Production, warehouse, shipping - where goods are produced, stored, sorted or packed, picking also takes place. This means that several individual goods are removed from storage units such as boxes or cartons and reassembled. With the FLAIROP (Federated Learning for Robot Picking) project Festo and researchers from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), together...
