Help Needed: Configuring GigE Camera with YuMi Robot Using Open-Source Tools

[johnmz]

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on a university project with the YuMi robot and need assistance with integrating a GigE camera. The camera is attached to the robot’s right hand, but I’m having trouble configuring it to capture and retrieve images.

Here are the details of my setup:

Robot Model: YuMi [https://new.abb.com/products/robot/yumi/single-arm]
Camera Model: GigE Camera [https://www.e-consystems.com/gige-cameras/ar0234-global-shutter-full-hd-gige-camera.asp]
Software Used: RobotStudio and FlexPendant
Despite my attempts to access the camera through both RobotStudio and the FlexPendant, I haven’t been able to get a response. I’m looking for guidance on the following:

Camera Activation: What steps should I follow to activate and properly configure the GigE camera with the YuMi robot?
Image Retrieval: How can I set up the system to capture and retrieve images from the GigE camera?
Integration Tips: Are there specific settings or configurations required to ensure seamless operation between the GigE camera and the YuMi robot?
Additionally, I am exploring the use of open-source software solutions for this integration. Are there any open-source tools or libraries that could assist with:

Camera Integration: Tools or libraries for integrating GigE cameras with robotic systems.
Image Processing: Open-source libraries for processing and analyzing the captured images.
Any advice, troubleshooting tips, or references to relevant documentation would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help!

@johnmz You seem to be in the wrong forum! This forum is about the mobile OS called Ubuntu Touch; to us, Yumi is the name of our cheerful little mascot, seen at the top of the page. I don't think your project is in any way related to Ubuntu Touch. Right?
