Setup

Robot Type: igus ReBeL REBEL-6DOF-03

The ReBeL is placed in front of a conveyor belt, which is added as external axis to the project. An ifm-camera is placed over the conveyor belt to detect the endings of the hose.

A felt pen is fixed to the ReBeL and moves to the location of the hose. When the camera detects an ending the conveyor belt stops and the ReBeL marks the ending. Afterwards the conveyor belts moves again, until the second ending is detected.
