Integration of a Knowledge Database and Machine Vision Within a Robot-Based CPS

In this chapter the integration of a knowledge database and machine vision within a robot-based CPS is picked out as a central theme. Three examples show the differences of implementing a robot-based CPS within large or small and medium-sized enterprises. The use cases describe the implementation of prototypes in different surroundings. It can either be an automated basic process in hazardous surroundings like the load of petrochemical liquids, one of several automated processes ongoing parallel in a classical production plant like the assembling process or an implementation to connect different automated process steps using an overall RFID system in the laundry process.
