    Hi Community,


    we are trying to identify a workaround for seam tracking with a Yaskawa Robot Type GP8 (with YRC 1000)and a Wenglor Profile Sensor MLWL131. The System should be able to finde a contour and then follow the contour.


    Therefore I already got software interface from Wenglor to communicate with the robot. I am also able to do the vision task of the sensor. So the sensor is able to "see" the seam and provide data in sensor coordinate system. Since I am kind of new in robotics I stuck on the robot side of the system.


    Question: How do use Wenglor Data in Yaskawa? First step, I guess, is to convert data from sensor coordinate system into robot coordinate system. Second step is path planning. How can I tell the robot ro follow the data coming from the sensor.


    Thank you very much for your help!
