Webinar Series Human Factors in Robotics
Join the Technical Committee (TC) Human Factors in Robotics for a webinar focusing on the critical and rapidly evolving domain of Industrial Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). This session will explore the latest advancements in robotic systems transforming industrial applications worldwide. From manufacturing floors to logistics hubs, robots are increasingly integral to modern industry. We will dive into the current state of task automation, examining which industrial tasks are already being efficiently automated by advanced robotic systems and which challenges arise for planning and designing these work systems. Looking ahead, this webinar will raise critical questions about the future of task automation in industrial settings. We will discuss emerging trends such as AI-based robotic systems and innovative HRI in relation to a human-centered workplace design. We have three experts in the field of industrial HRI who will present their latest work and perspectives. Our speakers will highlight real-world examples and shed light on potential risks and benefits for humans.
The TC invites anyone who is interested in the topic of Human Factors in Robotics to not only to attend the webinar, but also to join the TC. We are looking forward to sharing experience, knowledge and insights within the international Human Factors in Robotics community.
