Human-Robot Interaction
A documentation of research at CITEC, Bielefeld
By Johannes Wienke
During my time as a PhD student CITEC, Bielefeld University I was sometimes asked to create showcase images of the robotics research performed at the institute. This story features a selection of the photos created at that time.
CITEC was primarily known for its research on human-robot interaction. One of the prototypical robotics involved there is the colleague below.
My group was, however, primarily researching human-robot collaboration in industrial settings. For this purpose, an industrial transfer laboratory was operated with different industrial settings replicated there.
Inside the transfer lab, one photo series I took documents research on reconfiguring a robotic arm inside a modular production cell using physical human-robot interaction.
