In this project a team of 3 worked in programming a manual flexible workcell using the MRL programming language. By receiving a different input a different output for the Robot was generated. Depending on the previous steps and state only some actions can be done. Upon advancing the manufacturing of the work piece different flags are activated showing a led indicator. The idea of this project was allowing the usage of HMIs in conjunction with a robot.
Testing and Real-World Use
This could be tested by issuing commands in valid and invalid process states, including a missing completion signal, and checking that indicators reflect confirmed progress. State-aware interfaces are useful for making manual robot operations understandable without treating the demonstration as a certified interlock design.
