Abstract

An automatic nail shaping or other modification system and method are disclosed. The system and method automate the nail shaping to make the process quick and easy, and avoid manual nail shaping by providing an automated solution. The nail shaping system may be fully automated such that there is a selection of a desired nail shape (e.g., squared tip, rounded tip, oval tip, other shapes) and/or length (e-g., short, medium, long, or other specified lengths) for the system to provide. The user may insert a hand or foot into the system, and the system performs all the steps of nail shaping without further user input required after the selection.

IPC Classes  ?

• G06N 20/00 - Machine learning
• G06T 17/00 - 3D modelling for computer graphics
• G06V 40/10 - Human or animal bodies, e.g. vehicle occupants or pedestriansBody parts, e.g. hands

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a robotic apparatus and methods for automatic nail polish application on natural or artificial finger or toe nails. The robot uses artificial intelligence (Al) to identify and paints the nails. The robot uses depth sensors and computer vision to plan the movements of an end-effector. The robot uses Al and machine learning techniques such as deep reinforcement learning, and other algorithms and calculations to plan its path.
