Abstract: A robot (1) comprises at least one articulate arm having for members (3, 4-1,..., 4-5, 5) a base (3), an end effector (5) and a plurality of links (4-1,..., 4-6), wherein each link (4-1,..., 4-6) is movably connected to two others of said members (3, 4-1, f 4-6, 5) by respective joints (7-1,..., 7-6), at least one sensor (10, 9) for detecting an external force acting on any one of the members (3, 4-1, f 4-6, 5), and a controller (6) for controlling movements of the joints (7-1,..., 7-6), so as to move the end effector (5) along a pre-programmed path (12). In case of the sensor (9, 10) detecting an external force, the controller (6) is adapted to adopt a first release strategy for escaping from the external force, to evaluate whether the first strategy is successful, and if not, to adopt a second release strategy.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatic restocking different items in retail store environments having POS locations for the items are disclosed. The method includes, for a first item of the different items, storing at least one first item parameter uniquely identifying the first item. The method includes determining, based on the at least one first item parameter, a first autonomous movement control scheme for manipulation of the first item by a robotic arm. The method includes executing, by the robotic arm, the first control scheme, the executing including shelving the first item on the shelf. The method includes evaluating, by a processor or a user of the robotic arm, the executing for the first item according to at least one predetermined first performance criteria. The method includes determining and storing, based on the evaluating, an updated first control scheme for subsequent executing by the robotic arm for the first item.
