<p>The invention relates to a device for avoiding collisions between components of a multi-axial industrial robot (1,2) and at least one other object (1,2,3), wherein the device comprises a computation unit (13) adapted to estimate the time left until a collision occurs between the robot and the object, to compute a stopping time for the robot, and to compare the estimated time left until collision and the stopping time for the robot, and to generate an order to stop the robot or the object in case the estimated time left until collision is close to the stopping time for the robot.</p> |
