Barcelona has today hosted the closing event of the European Sharework project, which has rolled out a new smart system for safe and ergonomic collaboration between robots and workers in industrial manufacturing processes by tapping artificial intelligence and process data analysis.
The Workshop will produce a CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA) which will define guidelines for a unified technological framework consisting of the integration of planning, perception, and communication in human-robot collaboration (HRC) systems.
Sharework has been showcased in the European Robotics Forum (ERF 2022) by Néstor Garcia, Technical Coordinator of the project and principal investigator of the Robotics and Automation Unit from Eurecat. The event was held from 28th-30th June in Rotterdam (the Netherlands). The presentation, titled as “Implementation of Human-Robot Collaborative systems”, gave an overview of the…
Automation with robots has been dreamed, discussed, and deployed in various sectors and applications. May it be vacuum cleaner or other appliances at homes, logistic systems, or welding operations in production industries, etc. Along this way, new opportunities have evolved, while making work and life efficient and comfortable. We are at a time, where robots…
Cybersecurity in the manufacturing sector becomes more and more important as cyber-attacks increase in both frequency and severity. Human Robot collaborative systems heavily rely on the information technology to implement fenceless HRC environments. Cybersecurity threats in HRC systems are especially important as the impact of an attack can range from data theft, production, equipment or…
