MSI Smart Cobotics Flipbook Smart cobotics technology lowers the barrier of entry for robotic innovation and wider adoption. The mission of this Smart Cobotics Centre was to unlock productivity, grows, and healthier workplaces by addressing some of the key barriers holding industry back. Seven universities collaborated closely to advance 1) intuitive interaction and collaboration between people and robots, 2) enable robots to use more human like dexterous manipulation skills, 3) reduce the effort of designing, deploying, verifying and validation human-robot collaborative systems, and 4) explore the wider social, regularity, and legal challenges holding back the deployment of smart collaborative robotic technology in a manufacturing context.
The Centre is built on strong relationships with 50+ industrial and research partners across core UK industrial sectors. Our engagement with these industrial partners included the undertaking of Feasibility Projects to address the challenges which impede the adoption of collaborative robotics into their manufacturing processes.
This Flipbook illustrates how the Centre has fulfilled its Mission to unlock the full potential of UK industry to improve productivity and maximise growth by enabling people to achieve high quality results through collaborative automation and robotics.
