  • An interaction strategy for safe human co-working with industrial collaborative robots
    Publication . Garcia-Esteban, Juan Alberto; Piardi, Luis; Leitão, Paulo; Curto, Belén; Moreno, Vidal
    Within the framework of Industry 4.0, robotics is experiencing a rapprochement between humans and robots. To achieve this, the barriers that have historically separated humans from industrial robots are being eliminated with the main objective of increasing performance by taking advantage of the capabilities in which each one excels. The success of collaborative robotics is possible once safety is ensured, adding the need and importance of a proper human-robot communication interface. In this context, there are many safety techniques in current collaborative robots, but these are not sufficient to guarantee high industrial production and quality products. Non-verbal communication using the hands is one of the most widely used techniques in the industrial environment for the exchange of human-human information. Thus, this work presents a safety solution based on the creation of a new layer that allows the avoidance of human-robot collisions and includes a robust and safe human-robot communication interface. Advanced automatic learning and computer vision techniques have been used in its development, which was experimental analyses and validated in a co-work scenario involving an industrial collaborative robot and an operator.

  • Transnational lifelong education course in robotic systems
    Publication . Leitão, Paulo; Fraile, Juan Carlos; Moreno, Vidal; Harrison, Robert; Altun, Halis; Colombo, Armando W.; Turiel, Javier P.; Curto, Belén
    Robotics constitutes a multidisciplinary area, congregating knowledge from different scientific domains. The learning of robotic systems requires the acquisition of multidisciplinary scientific bases, and high integration and synthesis abilities, which is not an easy task. This paper describes the implementation of a lifelong course that aims to provide a global insight on robotics field, introducing the concepts and technologies for different domain applications, namely industrial robotics, autonomous mobile robotics and robotics applied in medicine. This is accomplished in an international framework where individual knowledge and experiences will be confronted in a multidisciplinary level and intercultural environment.
