Original Kurzfassung:
This contribution presents details of a novel demonstrator
developed at the Johannes Kepler University of Linz,
Austria. For exhibition purposes, the demonstrator needs to be
able to catch balls which are thrown into its workspace by the
audience. In our approach the demonstrator?s manipulator is
composed of a six-axes industrial robot, mounted onto a rapidly
moving linear axis, resulting in a redundant robotic system. To
track the thrown ball, a highly sophisticated, actuated vision
system is developed. From a mechatronical (and also industrial)
perspective, various interesting challenges arise in the process of
modeling and control of the overall mechatronic system.
