TLDR
A more efficient and safe overall system is proposed by using an Augmented Reality device which offers a simple interface between humans and robots and a Heterogeneous Fleet Management System which plans and provides collision-free paths for humans and Robots and ensures that the resulting environment is safe for both robots and humans.
Abstract
Nowadays, production systems and warehouses still lack human-robot collaboration. Often due to safety issues robots are kept behind safety fences and the overall system is shutdown once a human enters. This paper is based on a new concept to overcome these issues. It consists of a safety concept which ensures a more efficient human-robot collaboration. The human worker can be localized via a safety vest which he/she wears and the nearby robots are also aware of this information. We propose a more efficient and safe overall system by using an Augmented Reality device which offers a simple interface between humans and robots and a Heterogeneous Fleet Management System which plans and provides collision-free paths for humans and robots and ensures that the resulting environment is safe for both robots and humans.

Computers are social actors

TL;DR: Five experiments provide evidence that individuals’ interactions with computers are fundamentally social, and show that social responses to computers are not the result of conscious beliefs that computers are human or human-like.
