TitleHuman Machine Collaboration and Interaction for Smart Manufacturing: Automation, robotics, sensing, artificial intelligence, 5G, IoTs and Blockch

Advanced technologies such as robotics, 5G mobile communications, IoT, cloud computing and wireless sensor networks have had a huge impact and influence on manufacturing with an increased collaboration between humans and smart systems. As the manufacturing process gets more automated using real-time data, communication systems, Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques and robotics feed data back into the manufacturing process. This enables the design of products which are more customized and personal, and leads to a more competitive, efficient and value-added production process by reacting quicker to technical or human errors to avoid product and system damage while increasing workplace safety and risk assessment, and reducing waste, pollution, and associated costs.
