A Generalized Shape and Feature Descriptor from Models on a CAD/CAM System for Automatic Assembly

本建议书将研究 先进的设计支持系统具有几何建模器， 如何形成与装配相关但可能不 在基于功能的设计描述中明确提出 可以识别。 PI建议研究方法， 标识标准装配情况，方法是使用 询问建模器和开发 形式主义，表现部件的形式和功能 这很有用。 特征信息的提取与识别 形状的变化对于自动机器人编程至关重要， 自动装配

This proposal will research into the requirements which an advanced design support system has of a geometric modeler and how form features which are relevant to assembly but may not be explicitly present in the functionally based design description can be recognized. The PIs propose to research methods for identifying standard assembly situations by using the capability of interrogating the modeler and developing a formalism for expressing the form of the part and the function it serves. The extraction of feature information and identification of shape is essential for automatic robot programming and automatic assembly.
