Video Instructions
Have an application in mind? Send us a video of what you'd like to automate and our robot experts will review and provide an assessment.
Before you send us your video...
Your video will allow us to better understand your application for an OB7 collaborative robot. Here are a few tips on recording the video so that we can see everything involved in the setup and application:
-
When possible, shoot the complete job ‘cycle’ and allow a few extra seconds on the beginning and end.
-
In general, don't keep the camera too close. It helps us to see the whole environment so that we can see where the parts come from and where they need to go.
-
Try to show the work more than the operator. The operator can easily obscure the view of the work to be done.
-
Shoot the complete cycle a second time but this time close-up to feature interesting or ‘key’ parts of the operation.
-
When working through tasks, zoom in on the task occasionally so we can see the details of the parts and what's being done with and to them.
-
If the parts are supplied in containers, or placed in containers after processing, show us the containers with the parts in them.
-
Make the video as long as you need to show everything you want us to see.
Technical Tips:
-
Try to place the camera on a tri-pod or a flat surface so the video is not shaky.
-
Try to avoid distracting backgrounds: bright open windows, people doing big movements and anything too weird, colorful or interesting.
(Examples: sun blasting through the loading dock door, employees directing a forklift, ski boat or fancy show car. )
-
Don’t make the environment boring, just try to keep eyes on the work being done.
-
Get a few shots up close and farther away so we can see different views of the job being done.
