Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods are provided for controlling robots and their end effectors. One embodiment is a method for controlling a robot. The method includes: maneuvering a robot via a robot controller that is dedicated to operating the robot, thereby altering a position of an end effector mounted to the robot, communicating from the robot controller to an end effector controller that is disposed at the end effector and is dedicated to operating the end effector, determining a position of the end effector via the end effector controller, and operating the end effector via the end effector controller based on the position of the end effector.
