Comment:

user interfaces targeting various user groups:

  • Field technicians / operators, e.g. visualization of bill of material
  • Supply chain experts, e.g. visualization of legislation data
  • Production / quality engineers, e.g. designing new business process for new collaborations, e.g. monitoring status of incoming goods
  • Sales / marketing representatives, e.g. partner search for supply chains
  • Product designers / design engineers, e.g. visualization of quality/design/production data
  • Software developers, e.g. software design/deployment facilities e.g. DevOps for Cloud-based applications or IBM Bluemix services.

Increasing human achievements in manufacturing systems
Comment: Immersive and innovative augmented reality technologies will provide assistance via wearable, state-of-the-art dual glasses or Head Mounted Displays (HMD) for the worker, providing augmented reality presentation of the status of his condition and alerts, as well as guidelines for the task at hand where necessary
Occupational safety and health
Comment: HORSE has a multi-layered safety approach incorporating: a) Robot level safety (Fault detection, certified to work without fences), b) System level safety (portable devices for interactive inspection of the shop floor, augmented reality presentation of condition and alerts to the worker), c) Situation awareness software for manufacturing tasks (intention estimation, safety level monitoring)
Safety of robots sharing workspace with human workers, as well as assigned tasks with a health-risk to robots, and to human workers easier tasks, is one of the top opbjectives for HORSE
