In many real-world applications (eg, human-robot collaboration), the environment changes
rapidly, and the intended path may become invalid due to moving obstacles. In these …

This paper presents the implementation of an obstacle avoidance algorithm on the UR5e
collaborative robot. The algorithm, previously developed and verified in simulation, allows …

Teleoperation robots have been paid more attention in aerospace, medical domain, and
other fields because of their high precision and maneuverability. However, the working …

The current industrial environment faces an increased demand for products to be delivered
to market at a higher pace with high variety and customization. An increasing trend for …

The spread of cobotsin common industrial practice has led constructors to prefer the
development of collaborative features that are necessary to prevent injuries to operators …

The collaboration among humans and machines is one of the most relevant topics in the
Industry 4.0 paradigm. Collaborative robotics owes part of the enormous impact it has had in …

This work focuses on improving a camera system for sensing a workspace in which dynamic
obstacles need to be detected. The currently available state-of-the-art solution (MoveIt!) …

Collision detection via visual fences can significantly enhance the safety of collaborative
robotic arms. Existing work typically performs such detection based on pre-deployed …

The use of collaborative robots (or cobots) in rehabilitation therapies is aimed at assisting
and shortening the patient's recovery after neurological injuries. Cobots are inherently safe …

The last decade witnessed an unprecedented spread of robotics. The production paradigm
of Industry 4.0 and 5.0 yielded collaborative robots in production lines of all sizes. Also, the …
