Prototyping proactive and adaptive techniques for human-robot collaboration in manufacturing using virtual reality

Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) has emerged in recent years as a need for common collaborative execution of manufacturing tasks. This work examines two types of techniques of safe collaboration that do not interrupt the flow of collaboration as far as possible, namely proactive and adaptive. The former are materialised using audio and visual cognitive aids, which the user receives as dynamic stimuli in real time during collaboration, and are aimed...
