b) enter the object’s UPC code manually into the keypad
c) just type the object’s description manually into the POS terminal keyboard (e.g. “bananas bunch”).
2. a) motion capture. A human actually paints a bicycle frame, and sensors record the position and 3D angling of the paint nozzle, and the pressure his hand applied to the handle.
b) The positioning data can be modified by entering data from a keyboard.
3. a) The robot performs the same way EVERY TIME. If it performs flawlessly once, it’ll do it again and again.
b) The robot performs tirelessly. It can run 24/7 (except for maintenance times), does not need to have a pension plan or healthcare coverage.
4. a) The robot isn’t flexible. It paints the same way every time. If you get a new frame, you’ll need to reprogram the robot arm via motion capture again.
b) Sorry, I could only think of one disadvantage to using a robot for painting!! Um… maybe… the local labor union will hate your guts for replacing a skilled worker with a robot arm! LOL. Edit: If the robot breaks down, you have to wait for a factory rep to come out and fix it!
