Collaborative Application Between Robots for Industrial Environments

摘要

In some conditions, such as dangerous environments or unfortunate accidents where a human cannot reach the workspace where the robot operates, the solution is to use the feature that collaborative robots can work together whit cooperative robots. In this experiment, a Rethink Robotics Sawyer robot will collaborate with a Kuka youBot, to work together in a workspace where a human operator will not be necessary anymore. Here, the fact that Kuka youBot is a mobile robot is essential. The Sawyer robot can be supplied with materials and can also have the tool changed by the Kuka robot.
