Locating “Handles” and Retrieving Baggage
Using a masterless approach, AI recognizes the "handles" of suitcases and paper bags loaded on a cart, enabling the robot to retrieve the baggage.
Instructing by the General Term "Handle" Without Individual Teaching
With conventional rule-based vision functions, it is necessary to register models for each type of suitcase, bag, and paper bag with a different shape. In contrast, AI-powered masterless vision eliminates the need for individual teaching. Users can simply instruct the AI using general terms like "handle" to recognize objects.
AI Recognition of Suitcase and Paper Bag Handles
For example, when the recognition target is specified using the general term "handle," the AI detects handles of various shapes captured in the image.
Retrieving and Aligning Randomly Placed Baggage
By utilizing this masterless AI object detection, the system can recognize randomly loaded baggage on a cart. The robot then retrieves them one by one and aligns them neatly on a conveyor.
