Abstract

In human-robot collaborative manufacturing, industrial robots would work alongside the human workers who jointly perform the assigned tasks. Recent research work revealed that recognised human motions could be used as input for industrial robots control. However, the human-robot collaboration team still cannot work symbiotically. In response to the requirement, this chapter explores the potential of establishing context awareness between a human worker and an industrial robot for human-robot collaborative assembly. The context awareness between the human worker and the industrial robot is established by applying gesture recognition, human motion recognition and Augmented Reality (AR) based worker instruction technologies. Such a system works in a cyber-physical environment and is demonstrated by case studies.
