The large-scale application of industrial robots has created a demand for more intelligent and efficient health monitoring, which is more efficiently met by data-driven methods due to the surge in data and the advancement of computing technology. However, applying deep learning methods to industrial robots presents critical challenges such as data collection, application packaging, and the need for customized algorithms. To overcome these difficulties, this paper introduces a Platform of data-driven Health monitoring for IRs (PHIR) that provides a universal framework for manufacturers to utilize deep-learning-based approaches with minimal coding. Real-time data from multiple IRs and sensors is collected through a cloud-edge system and undergoes unified pre-processing to facilitate model training with a large volume of data. To enable code-free development, containerization technology is used to convert algorithms into operators, and users are provided with a process orchestration interface. Furthermore, algorithm research both for sudden fault and long-term aging failure detection is conducted and applied to the platform for industrial robot health monitoring experiments, by which the superiority of the proposed platform, in reality, is proven through positive results.
3D point cloud registration is a crucial technology for 3D scene reconstruction and has been successfully applied in various domains, such as smart healthcare and intelligent transportation. With theoretical analysis, we find that geometric structural relationships are essential for 3D point cloud registration. The 3D point cloud registration method achieves excellent performance only when fusing local and global features with geometric structure information. Based on these discoveries, we propose a 3D point cloud registration method based on geometric structure embedding into the attention mechanism (GraM), which can extract the local features of the non-critical point and global features of the corresponding point containing geometric structure information. According to the local and global features, the simple regression operation can obtain the transformation matrix of point cloud pairs, thereby eliminating the semantics that ignores the geometric structure relationship. GraM surpasses the state-of-the-art results by 0.548° and 0.915° regarding the relative rotation error on ModelNet40 and LowModelNet40, respectively.
