At this highly interactive, free-to-attend event we will be sharing a selection of outputs, research and feasibility studies from the Smart Cobotics Centre, which includes teams from Loughborough University, University of Birmingham, University of Strathclyde, University of Dundee, Cranfield University, University of Warwick and University of Bristol.
The Open Day will focus on the topic of collaborative robotics, offering the opportunity to see how our centre has approached the challenges which arise when humans and robots share tasks within the same workspace; challenges which have come to light in our engagement with our industrial partners.
With a mix of live demonstrations, poster presentations, panel discussions and facilitated workshops, this will be a day to explore the subject area and ask any questions you might have about the future of human-robot collaboration within manufacturing.
Free-to-attend workshops will run in parallel sessions as follows:
Morning Sessions
OPTION 1 – Skills for the Happy Human-robot Workforce
OPTION 2 – Human-Robot Collaboration for Responsive Automation: Adapting to the Changing Nature of Work
Afternoon Sessions
OPTION 1 – Safe Human-Robot Collaboration
