The interface system includes a computer workstation to allow inputs from a user, such as a machine operator, computer memory, and an interface computer program operating on the computer. The computer has a graphical user interface for interfacing the operator with the workstation and to allow interactive operation and control of the machine tool. The operator can provide inputs to the interface system by various input devices such as a keyboard, cursor, mouse, a stylus pointing device or a touch sensitive screen. The interface software shares access to and exchanges data with the computer memory.Field of SearchOperator interface (e.g., display with control)Robot control Having particular operator interface (e.g., teaching box, digitizer, tablet, pendant, dummy arm) Combined with knowledge processing (e.g., natural language system) Programmed data (e.g., path) modified by sensed data Based on user input Teaching system Manual lead through Machine driven lead through | |
