Bionic workstation: human-computer collaboration using artificial intelligence

New demands have emerged in industrial change, such as a shortened product life cycle, but a significant increase in derivative varieties. At the same time, it is becoming more and more important to ensure that employees can adapt to new jobs quickly and intuitively. This requires a new form of collaboration between people, machinery and software. Here, an artificial intelligence self-learning system and a robot- based automation solution play an important role. Robot-based solutions work hand-in-hand with human operators to form a network with each other. The bionics station met all of these requirements – Festo exhibited a groundbreaking working environment at the 2018 Hannover Messe.

In the future, production will be flexible – from the point of view of the manufactured product to the design of the work station and work environment. Artificial intelligence and machine learning transform the work station into a learning system, continue to grow, and optimize to meet the actual work requirements. Festo impressively demonstrated this feature through a bionic station. In the bionic workstation, the person works with the bionic robot arm and is equipped with a number of auxiliary systems and peripherals that are connected to each other and communicate with each other. The operator's work is supported by technology that relieves the operator from fatigue or frees them from dangerous work.

Sensor and artificial intelligence based learning system

The design of the entire station is ergonomic and can be adapted to different people, even lighting. Sensors and camera systems record the position of operators, components and tools so that people can intuitively control BionicCobot by gestures, touch or voice. At the same time, a software system processes all camera images as well as input signals from various peripherals. Using this information, the software system can derive the optimal program sequence. The system learns from each new action to continuously optimize itself. Therefore, the controlled, programmed, and set sequence gives way to a more free working style.

Sharing knowledge, sharing globally

Once the knowledge is acquired and optimized, the processes and skills of the bionic workstation can be transmitted to other systems of the same type in real time and shared globally. For example, in the future, each workstation can be integrated into a global network to share knowledge modules; communicate in different national languages. In this way, production not only becomes more flexible, but also more dispersed: operators can call up production orders from the Internet platform and collaborate on the production of these orders with the machine – to meet the individual wishes and requirements of the customer. The remote operation of the station is also not far from us.

BionicCobot (bionic light collaborative robot) as a core element

A key component of this work environment is the pneumatic lightweight "BionicCobot". The robot is modeled on a human arm. It is driven by compressed air to perform various actions with great flexibility; therefore, it can interact directly and safely with people. Digital pneumatic technology makes this possible: the combination of Festo Motion Terminal and BionicCobot opens up a new solution space for human-computer collaboration, allowing BionicCobot to move both quickly and vigorously, as well as flexibly and delicately.

Personalized production scene

At the Hannover Messe, the bionic station displays a scene of individual product manufacturing. For example, to create a personalized model of a human head, the laser cutter first sliced ​​the acrylic glass: a software program converts a person's facial features scanned with a smartphone into a CAD model and then splits them into pieces. The laser cutting machine cuts the parts from the acrylic glass based on this three-dimensional template. The BionicCobot takes the slices directly from the cutter and gives them to the operator in the correct order, which assembles the slices into a unique model.

In this scenario, the material continues to feed continuously by Robotino? Make sure that it travels back and forth between the two stations and uses a laser scanner to safely find the route. The loading is done by the improved version of the BionicMotion Robot, which uses a soft robotic structure consisting of an air cavity and a three-dimensional fabric overlay. This configuration combines all the key elements of robotics .
