    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relates to an electronic device, a vision-based operation method and system for a robot. The electronic device includes at least one processing unit; and a memory coupled to the at least one processing unit and storing computer program instructions therein, the instructions, when executed by the at least one processing unit, causing the electronic device to perform acts including: obtaining an image containing a tool of a robot and an object to be operated by the tool, the image being captured by a camera with a parameter, obtaining a command for operating the tool, the command generated based on the image; and controlling the robot based on the command and the parameter. Embodiments of the present disclosure can greatly improve the accuracy, efficiency and safety of an operation of a robot.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and a controller of controlling a robot. The method comprising detecting a pattern of a series of external forces applied on a portion of at least one arm link of the robot; comparing the pattern with a predetermined pattern associated with the portion; and in accordance with a determination that the detected pattern matches the predetermined pattern, controlling the robot to perform an action corresponding to the predetermined pattern. By introducing a pattern of a series of external forces applied on a robot to control the robot, the control of the robot can be done more intuitively. In this way, some intermediate steps such as conversion of view angle and instructions required to use the HMI-based methods are omitted, thereby improving efficiency or reliability of the robot.

    Abstract: The present application relates to a method for robot control. The method includes: obtaining at least one parameter associated with a robot to be controlled by a controller; determining a first identity of the robot based on the at least one parameter; comparing the first identity with a pre-stored second identity; and in response to the first identity matching the second identity, controlling operations of the robot with the controller. The present application further discloses detection of a mismatch between the controller and the robot in an easy, safe and convenient way.
