Abstract

Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for training a path of a robot by physically moving the robot, wherein the particular trained path and/or particular robot component movements to achieve the trained path are dependent on which of a plurality of available user interface inputs are selected for the training. The trained path defines a path to be traversed by a reference point of the robot, such as a path to be traversed by a reference point of an end effector of the robot. The particular robot component movements to achieve the trained path include, for example, the orientations of various robot components at each of a plurality of positions along the path, the velocity of various components at each of a plurality of positions along the path, etc.
