Abstract
With the advance in IT technology sensors and processing power exist to achieve fully automated robot programming in industrial tasks. This paper reports on the EU-project FlexPaint, which devised a methodology to automatically generate robot programs for spray painting of unknown parts. The solution uses four steps: laser triangulation sensing, geometric feature detection, tool path planning, and the generation of the collision-free executable robot program. Demonstrations at industrial partners show the results.
