A novel approach for automatic annotation of human actions in 3D point clouds for flexible collaborative tasks with industrial robots.

Manual annotation for human action recognition with content semantics using 3D Point Cloud (3D-PC) in industrial environments consumes a lot of time and resources. This work aims to recognize, analyze, and model human actions to develop a framework for automatically extracting content semantics. Main Contributions of this work: 1.

A data-driven approach for motion planning of industrial robots controlled by high-level motion commands.

Most motion planners generate trajectories as low-level control inputs, such as joint torque or interpolation of joint angles, which cannot be deployed directly in most industrial robot control systems. Some industrial robot systems provide interfaces to execute planned trajectories by an additional control loop with low-level control inputs. However, there is a geometric and temporal deviation between the executed and the planned motions due to the inaccurate estimation of the inaccessible robot dynamic behavior and controller parameters in the planning phase.

No-code robotic programming for agile production: A new markerless-approach for multimodal natural interaction in a human-robot collaboration context.

Industrial robots and cobots are widely deployed in most industrial sectors. However, robotic programming still needs a lot of time and effort in small batch sizes, and it demands specific expertise and special training, especially when various robotic platforms are required. Actual low-code or no-code robotic programming solutions are exorbitant and meager.
