Perspective and Methods of Human-Industrial Robots Cooperation

Abstract:

The development of robotics caused the creation of new solutions in robots communication. Nowadays, there is a need to create not only systems of cooperation between robots and/or their equipment, but also in the relation human-robot. The paper presents the idea of software supporting the collaboration between human and industrial robot. First of all, different types of cooperation in robotics are described. Moreover, a communication solution and computer software proposal are presented. In the final part of the paper the authors present the application developed and the results of experimental work.
