Design is the foundation of any product / IP. But a design that doesn’t know its tools is just a castle in the air. It’s destined to never see the daylight. The design is as good as the tools allow them to be. Without someone skilled enough to know how to apply their tools, a design doesn’t evolve.
Every component of the design/product is a tool and learning to apply them for a given situation and problem, is what allows us to discover the utility for that Product. People call it testing, market discovery, product discovery, etc. We call it Application Engineering. And the tool that you would master is an industrial Robot.
Your primary contribution will be towards....
Robot Applications Engineering
a. Supporting CynLr’s Solutions Engineering team with all the Application Development related activities – Design, develop and execute software, features for application sequences, for algorithms, kinematics, and solutions that the design team comes up with.
i) Help with simulating robot movements for dynamic path, algorithms and design and execute its test and validation.
ii) Help design team with Robot UI, IDE, Sample code, Safety of Robot operation in the Lab and all ‘nuances’, features, best practices, and customizations of Robot Operation.
iii) Help with simulations and training of the robot for Object models and teaching the robot for pick, orient and place tasks.
iv) Coming up with strategies for solving the manipulation solutions, by constructing appropriate paths, interferences, collisions, sensing mechanisms and robot sequence.
v) Help with augmenting the design team for interfacing with various Robot controllers and establishing communication protocols with the Robotic Arms
vi) Understand grasping strategy and device gripper experiments, assist in gripper design.
b. Study, Understand and Assist in choosing the right robotic arm model for the right application
c. Interface with the customer and support customer with application implementation and delivery.
d. Identify, Connect, and Manage Robot and Robot related accessory vendors.
