CISUTAC [GA 10106037
Areas mainly addressed: Agile Production
Main questions to be answered:
· How intelligent and autonomous should the robot be to be integrated in industrial plants and how is the current state of robots in industrial plants dealing with soft materials manipulation?
· How intelligent and autonomous should the robot be to be integrated in industrial plants with respect to the current state of robots dealing with soft materials manipulation?
· What is the trade-off between tailored design of robotic grippers and the adaptive intelligent control?
WS Description: This workshop proposes future potential technology to handle flexible and deformable materials, in order to reduce labour-intensive production processes. Four different projects (APRIL, SoftManBot, CISUTAC and Masterly) will be presented from an academic and industrial point of view. The projects are at different stages of development, and they will show 11 different applied solutions, and 4 different novel approaches. All the projects are built on three main pillars: generic robotic perception system, multi-sensor control and planning platform and smart dexterous grippers. The workshop will focus on deformation of soft materials, manipulation operation and presence of human operators in the loop. Finally, the high quality speakers and the following discussions will bring in new ideas, which will help the attendees to widen their vision about the soft material manipulation trend.
Intended outcome: Novel format (e.g. interactive matchmaking session for technologies and applications), Workshop discussion topics of common interest, success stories, use cases, etc
Approach: 80min-long workshop
