Motion planning, Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC), Edge Computing, Robotics AI and ML, Sensor Fusion, Safety-Critical Control
To improve efficiency, precision and safety in production processes, research focuses on intelligent robotic solutions in industrial environments to automate tasks without direct human intervention or to collaborate with human operators in safety.
AI, sensor-fusion, advanced control, and planning solutions are integrated. Applications include, in addition to assembly and inspection, disassembly, co-transport and co-manipulation. Solutions have affected the fashion, clothing, textile, footwear, and composite materials sectors. A simulation environment has been developed to train robots to handle and disassemble garments and flexible products. Selective robotic disassembly techniques and tools for textiles, shoes, etc. are developed; as well as human-robot co-transport of textile products and increasing the cognitive and dexterity capabilities of robots. A framework for protective film removal from prepregs using collaborative robot as easy-to-integrate framework.
