Abstract[English]
The present disclosure provides techniques for controlling multiple robots using single HMI device. Specially, the present disclosure describes a system having a Teach Pendant Unit Multiplexer (TPU-MUX) that allows multiple robots to remain connected to the single HMI device all at the same time. The system further allows the HMI device to communicate with at least one robot among the plurality of connected robots, at a time and to switch between plurality of connected robots seamlessly.[French]
La présente invention concerne des techniques pour commander de multiples robots à l'aide d'un seul dispositif HMI. En particulier, la présente invention concerne un système ayant un multiplexeur de boîtiers de commande (TPU-MUX) qui permet à de multiples robots de rester connectés à l'unique dispositif HMI tous en même temps. Le système permet en outre au dispositif HMI de communiquer avec au moins un robot parmi la pluralité de robots connectés, à un moment donné et de commuter entre une pluralité de robots connectés sans discontinuité.
