This Research Opportunity Award funds a project "Design for Recognizability in Flexible Manufacturing" at Tuskegee University in support of Georgia Institute of Technology's Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Material Handling. This two year project is approved by and reporting to the Center's Industry Advisory Board. The research is 1.) developing the guidelines for designing or modifying a part to comply with a proposed new method for easy and reliable recognition of an isolated object on a flat surface, by a robot fitted with a retroreflective vision sensor; 2.) designing and modifying specific components, suggested by the interested member companies of the Material Handling Research Center of Georgia Tech, using above guidelines; 3.) conducting experiments in part recognition and handling using an IBM robot, IBM AT, and Georgia Tech's Landmark Tracking Camera with retroreflective vision sensing; and 4.) developing preliminary metrics to compare alternate designs of a part on the basis of recognizability and cycle time for handling by going through the iterative procedure of guidelines, design, test and metrics. The researcher is competent and has the facilities available to perform the research. The Program Manager recommends Tuskegee University be awarded $100,000 for two (2) years.

这项研究机会奖资助了塔斯基吉大学的一个项目“柔性制造中的可识别性设计”，以支持佐治亚理工学院的工业/大学材料处理合作研究中心。这个为期两年的项目由中心的行业咨询委员会批准并报告。该研究是1.)开发设计或修改零件的指导方针，以符合提出的新方法，使机器人能够轻松可靠地识别平面上的孤立物体，该方法配备了反向反射视觉传感器；2.)根据佐治亚理工学院物料搬运研究中心的相关成员公司的建议，根据上述指导原则设计和修改特定部件；3)使用IBM机器人、IBM AT和佐治亚理工学院的地标跟踪相机（Landmark Tracking Camera）进行零件识别和处理实验；4)根据可识别性和处理周期时间，通过指南、设计、测试和度量的迭代过程，制定初步指标，以比较零件的替代设计。研究人员有能力，并有进行研究的设施。项目经理建议向塔斯基吉大学提供为期两年的10万美元奖励。
