Adaptive robot control

by
Denso Corporation
Context

Denso developed human-like autonomous robots by integrating Azure OpenAI Service for natural language understanding with Azure AI for voice recognition to enable flexible, dialogue-driven control of robotic movements. They employed GitHub Copilot to rapidly generate and refine control code and created a unique verification tool for adjusting robot functions based on real-world inputs. This integration transformed traditional pre-programmed workflows into dynamic systems supporting human-robot collaboration in diverse operational settings.

Results

Basic control architecture completed in 2 days; significant improvement in movement precision confirmed in testing
