Robotic Projects
Research, Development and Transfer
CERI conducts applied research and development in close cooperation with the regional industry - both SMEs and larger companies. This ensures the optimum practical relevance for PhD, Master and Bachelor students and enables a direct transfer of research outcomes into practice.
IDMP
Interactive Distance Field Mapping and Planning Framework
The IDMP framework was designed to make the interactions between humans and robots safe. The framework consists of two components: 1) real-time workspace monitoring in form of a distance field, and 2) reactive motion planning that utilizes the distance field in order to stay away as far as possible from static and dynamic objects.
KoPro
Configurable Process Chains for the Collaborative Assembly of Complex Components
The goals of project KoPro are two-fold: 1) To reduce the planning effort for human-robot assembly teams by extracting information from existing product and process information upfront. 2) To automatically generate and adapt robot programs and human assembly instructions via smart workspace monitoring and bidirectional human-robot communication.
InKoMo
Interactive and Collaborative Assembly of Complex Components
Because of the lack of cost effectiveness, complex or individualized components with a small batch size often have a low degree of automation. Solutions to increase efficiency can be intelligent assembly sites. Within the “lnKoMo” project, AR applications and collaborative robots (cobots) are examined for possible usages in assisted, intelligent workplaces. The objective is to develop a tried-and-tested generally valid procedure for establishing intelligent, manual assembly processes on the basis of use cases.
