Proceedings of the 30th IEEE International virtual Conference on Robot & Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN 2021) Paul Eichler; Aquid Rashid; Ibrahim Al Nasser; Jayanto Halim; Mohamad Bdiwi (Fraunhofer IWU) Abstract Shorter product lifecycles, mass individualization and agile concepts for lot size1 require more flexible production. Constant challenges may result in optimized processes. However, opimization effects not…
Proceedings of the IEEE International Conference on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (IEEE ROMAN) (August 2021) Cesare Tonola (University of Brescia); Marco Faroni, Nicola Pedrocchi (CNR-STIMA) and Manuel Beschi (University of Brescia, CNR-STIMA) Abstract Robots working in proximity of humans often need to change their motion to avoid collisions and interference with the operators. This…
