交易会和展览会已经存在了几个世纪。无论是汽车还是服装,它们都为卖家和潜在买家提供了一个重要的会面点。一些展会组织者将展览空间划分为预定义的单元,这可能会限制灵活性。空间的自由布局允许任何形状或大小的展台,给参展商一个更好的机会来创造一些引人注目的壮观的东西。提供充分的灵活性和自由的布局,意味着每个新的展会都将有所不同。除了每个单独的支架具有不同的大小之外,其形状不限于矩形,但可能是三角形或椭圆形。所有这些都对博览会的生产提出了很高的要求。例如,每个展台的位置和轮廓必须在施工阶段之前确定并标记在地板上。本文给出了一个真实世界的例子,说明如何使用机器人技术来自动化展览和交易会的标记过程,从而减少标记时间并改善工作条件。介绍了一种配备激光扫描仪和喷墨打印机的移动机器人系统。文章的重点是对阅卷过程的描述和系统的设计。此外,还概述了这种系统的要求,以及三年多的运行结果和商业化分析。
Trade fairs and exhibitions have been around for centuries. They provide an important meeting point for sellers and potential buyers, be it for cars or clothes. Some fair organizers partition the exhibition space into predefined units, which may limit the flexibility. A free layout of the space allows for any shape or size of the stands and gives the exhibitor a better chance at creating something spectacular that will attract attention. Providing full flexibility, and thus a free layout, means that every new fair will be different. In addition to each individual stand having a varying size, the shape is not constrained to be rectangular, but might be, e.g., triangular or elliptic. All of this puts high demands on the production of the fairs. For example, the location and outline of every stand has to be determined and marked on the floor before the construction phase. This article gives a real world example of how robot technology can be used to automate the marking process for exhibitions and fairs in a way that both reduces the marking time and improves the working conditions. A mobile robot system equipped with a laser scanner and an ink jet printer is presented. The focus of the article is the description of the marking process and the system design. In addition, the requirements for such a system are outlined as well as results from over three years of operation and an analysis for commercialization.
