FANUC is a world leading original equipment manufacturer of the most complete range of robotic systems. Their products have applications in sectors including automotive, aerospace, consumer products, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, medical, mining and other industries. The use of robotics devices for human assistive care, as well as the development of exoskeletal robots for amputees and persons with low or zero mobility is growing in Canada and worldwide. These applications require enhanced control for precise motion of the robot joints in order to stable and safe movement in complex scenarios. Having more precise motion will also significantly benefit the manufacturing sector in Canada and worldwide. FANUC works collaboratively with academic researchers, providing a synergy that the company is keen on fostering in Atlantic Canada. The organization discussed with Dr. Dubay recently, noting that he and his team conduct research on developing advanced control solution for complex processes. The company has a complete software system RoboGuide (RG) that is expected to exactly simulate the dynamic behavior or motion of its robots to its end-users. FANUC would like to improve the trajectory tracking capability of its physical robots by working with Dr. Dubay and his team to develop tracking controllers integrated into RG and a small-scale robot. Improving the motion within RG translates to better motion control of its physical robotic systems, which is key to its global customers on diverse applications. This project has the potential to place Canada and UNB as a leader in robotics research for ultra-fast robots with tracking of complex trajectories much better than current systems. This would potentially result in providing more accurate robots to global markets, which would eventually translate to higher productivity and operational efficiencies in manufacturing industries and other sectors, resulting in significant savings. FANUC recognizes that Dr. Dubay and his team have solid expertise and laboratory facilities in advanced controls, making his team well poised for this research project.
