Production machines in factory halls are often equiped with feeders that contain the parts that are used during the production process. These feeders need to be refilled once in a while. The aim of this project is to develop a small, mobile robot that is able to assist humans in feeding task of production machines in a...

The main goal of the experiment (Application development) is focused on safe human-robot cooperation. In the proposed experiment, the robot co-worker interacts with a human operator to achieve the common goal of manipulating shared objects. The robot will have to adapt its configuration and dynamics to the conditions imposed...

In order to plan and simulate complex welding tasks the internal data structure of the RobotMotionCenter has been extended to be able to load and visualize external axes, i.e. a turn-tilt table. The progress of adapting and enhancing the existing functions to this new data structure has already begun and a communication based...

We have carried out an experiment to test the accuracy and precision of the Kinect. We are currently analysing the data from this experiment.
We have demonstrated basic robot interaction at the Scandinavian Industry Expo 2011 in Herning, Denmark. A Kinect camera was placed on the robot, so people visiting the expo could come...

In the last two months we have been working on Task 2 (Positioning/Relocation) and Task 3 (Site Tolerance). Task 3 deals with the challenges of dimensional tolerances existing on construction sites. The objectives are, firstly to measure the real world data and secondly to develop a software prototype which maps the...
