Portable Rapid Visual Workflow Simulation Tool for Human Robot Coproduction

摘要: Within the European Factory-in-a-day project, aim is to improve communication between automation integrator and factory owner, in their analysis of feasibility appropriateness automating a manual task. A visualisation tool with preconfigured workflows working principles, specific focus on efficient human-robot coproduction can this process. This paper describes Workflow Simulation Tool, which part Human-Robot Coproduction Methodology, currently development. The encompasses portable tablet PC, runs visual modelling environment combined handheld 3D scanning solution. also features pre-modelled template layouts, implementation checklist persistent notes documentation. tool's was iteratively validated collaboration integrators. evaluation showed that offering an interactive simulation enriches dialogue during conceptual design helps revealing requirements otherwise only appear or after implementation.
