From the background information supplied by the inventors, news correspondents o btained the followingquote: “The invention generally relates to robotic and oth er sortation systems, and relates in particularto articulated arm systems for u se in sortation systems.“Systems and methods using mechanical compliance to improve robot performance du ring graspingand manipulation are known. Purpose-built compliant elements exist commercially that function as safetyguards, such as, for example, position sen sors sold by ABB Automation Technology Products AB ofSweden. These devices may include magnetic breakaway or spring elements that deflect when contactbetween the robot and the environment is made. Additionally, these designs can include r udimentaryon/off sensing of a breakaway state, which is often used as a stop si gnal to the robot controller.
