FLEXIBLE ASSEMBLY MANUFACTURING WITH HUMAN-ROBOT COLLABORATION AND DIGITAL TWIN MODELS

The project targets the priority application area of agile production and aims to design the next generation assembly processes required to effectively meet current and urgent manufacturing needs.
FELICE combines multidisciplinary research in collaborative robotics, AI, computer vision, IoT, machine learning, data analysis, cyber-physical systems, process optimization and ergonomics to develop a modular platform that integrates and harmonizes a range of autonomous and cognitive technologies.

Research topics
Coordination of the interaction between robot and human
Agile production in a collaborative robot environment
Context awareness of robot systems
Automatic optimization of robot/human-based production processes
