About
Niels Lohse is a prominent researcher at the forefront of human-robot collaboration (HRC), intelligent manufacturing systems, and industrial robotics. His work addresses one of modern manufacturing's most pressing challenges: enabling small and medium-sized enterprises to harness robotic technologies through innovative frameworks such as Robots as a Service (IRaaS), a concept that has already garnered 119 citations since 2022. Lohse's research is distinguished by its interdisciplinary depth, bridging neuroscience and robotics through EEG-based intention recognition systems that enhance safety in symbiotic human-robot environments — work that has attracted 113 citations and represents a significant leap forward in intuitive human-machine interaction. His contributions extend to force/torque-based learning for adaptive robot manipulation, wearable sensor integration, and ethical frameworks governing human-robot collaboration, reflecting a holistic vision of people-centric manufacturing. More recently, Lohse has pioneered reconfigurable and responsive manufacturing architectures capable of autonomous adaptation to fluctuating production demands. With a body of work exceeding 500 cumulative citations across key publications, his research meaningfully shapes how industries design safer, smarter, and more accessible robotic systems for the factory of the future.
