Human Robot Collaborative Assembly

Human-robot collaborative assembly (HRCA) focuses on designing systems where humans and robots work together efficiently on assembly tasks, leveraging the strengths of both. Current research emphasizes improving communication between human and robot, exploring methods like natural language processing (LLMs) and gaze-based intention recognition to enhance coordination and reduce reliance on rigid, pre-programmed interactions. This research is significant because effective HRCA can boost manufacturing efficiency and ergonomics by optimizing task allocation and reducing human cognitive workload, leading to safer and more productive workplaces.
