Human-Robot-Interaction for mobile industrial robot teams

Abstract

Due to high variants and small lot sizes, a conventional use of robots behind fences does not fulfill the requirements of today's production anymore. Therefore, the importance of mobile robot systems is increasing. In order to best use the capabilities of these robots, teams consisting of several robots or a robot and a human are built. For a cooperative work between robot and human, interaction systems are necessary. This paper describes an interaction concept, where the channel to the robot system is realized through gestures and eye tracking and the channel coming from the robot system is realized with projection.
