Abstract
A determination device includes an interface configured to acquire a vibration signal generated when a position of an object is switched, and a controller configured to determine a state of the object using the vibration signal.
Claims14
A system comprising:
- a determination device;
- a robot;
- and
- a sensor,
- wherein the robot is configured to operate a target switch;
- wherein the sensor is configured to detect a target vibration signal generated when a position of the target switch is changed by the robot;
- wherein the determination device includes:
- an interface configured to acquire the target vibration signal;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- (i) control the robot to change the position of the target switch;
- and (ii) determine whether or not the operation of the target switch by the robot is successful by comparing the target vibration signal with an output signal from a learned model;
- and
- wherein the learned model is programmed to:
- learn a training vibration signal of a predetermined switch;
- and
- output, as the output signal, a signal indicating vibration generated when a position of the predetermined switch is changed.

A determination method comprising:
- operating, by a robot, a target switch;
- detecting, by a sensor, a target vibration signal generated when a position of the target switch is changed by the robot;
- acquiring, by an interface, the target vibration signal;
- and
- controlling, by a controller, the robot to change the position of the target switch;
- and
- determining, by the controller, whether or not the operation of the target switch by the robot is successful by comparing the target vibration signal with an output signal from a learned model,
- wherein the learned model is programmed to:
- learn a training vibration signal of a predetermined switch;
- and
- output, as the output signal, a signal indicating vibration generated when a position of the predetermined switch is changed.
