Dual arm robot in cooperation with humans for flexible assembly
Sotiris Makris,Panagiota Tsarouchi,Aleksandros-Stereos Matthaiakis,Athanasios Athanasatos,Xenofon Chatzigeorgiou,Michael Stefos,Konstantinos Giavridis,Sotiris Aivaliotis +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a flexible assembly cell, including a dual arm robot in cooperation with humans for assembly tasks typically performed by operators, is presented, where the robot performs these tasks both in isolation and cooperation with the human.
Journal ArticleDOI
Success factors for introducing industrial human-robot interaction in practice: an empirically driven framework
TL;DR: A comprehensive two-dimensional framework covering three separate phases and four essential components for human-robot working systems is developed and argued for more application-oriented research that focuses on practically relevant factors to guide HRI research, inform cobot development, and support companies in overcoming apparent barriers.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Augmented reality experiments with industrial robot in industry 4.0 environment
TL;DR: The implementation of an augmented reality application for smart glasses with mid-air gestures and smart phone with touch interaction is described to compare and evaluate the usage of such interfaces in a production cell comprising an industrial robot.

Stable haptic interaction with virtual environments
Richard Adams,Blake Hannaford +1 more
TL;DR: By decoupling the haptic display control problem from the design of virtual environments, the use of a virtual coupling network frees the developer of haptic-enabled virtual reality models from issues of mechanical stability.

Towards a 3g crawling robot through the integration of microrobot technologies
TL;DR: This paper discusses the biomimetic design and assembly of a 3g self-contained crawling robot fabricated through the integrated use of various microrobot technologies and presents results of both the kinematic and static analyses of the driving mechanism that essentially consists of three slider cranks in series.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast and "soft-arm" tactics [robot arm design]
Antonio Bicchi,G. Tonietti +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the problem of designing joint-actuation mechanisms that can allow fast and accurate operation of a robot arm, while guaranteeing a suitably limited level of injury risk.
