Collaboration Requirement Planning Protocol for HUB-CI in Factories of the Future
Rapid advances in production systems’ models and technology continually challenge manufacturers preparing for the factories of the future. To address the complexity issues typically coupled with the improvements, we have developed a brain-inspired model for production...
V.Ra: An In-Situ Visual Authoring System for Robot-IoT Task Planning with Augmented Reality
We present V.Ra, a visual and spatial programming system for robot-IoT task authoring. In V.Ra, programmable mobile robots serve as binding agents to link the stationary IoTs and perform collaborative tasks. We establish an ecosystem that coherently connects the three...
