COLLISION SENSING APPARATUS OF ARTICULATED ROBOT AND METHOD USING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a collision sensing apparatus of an articulated robot, wherein the present invention is to provide a collision sensing apparatus of an articulated robot and a method using the same, by which a collision generated to the robot is sensed, and the articulated robot can be controlled in accordance with whether the robot collides. In accordance with the present invention, the collision sensing apparatus of the articulated robot comprises: an input unit to input movement information for a movement of the articulated robot; acceleration sensor units installed in a plurality of joints of the articulated robot to measure accelerations generated in the plurality of joints of the articulated robot operated by the movement information; and a controller to receive the movement information from the input unit, to determine whether the robot collides with an outdoor article by receiving acceleration information acquired in real time by the acceleration sensor unit, and to control the articulated robot in accordance with whether the robot collides.
