HERR-MAN - Human ergonomics improvement during human-robot deformable object comanipulation

A human and a collaborative robot are transporting a large flexible sheet of plastic towards a table.
Projet Description

The main objective of HERR-MAN project is to improve the effectiveness, comfort and ergonomics in physical and continuous human-robot collaboration while carrying and co-manipulating heavy objects with deformability. We target cases such as comanipulation of acrylic and metal sheets, which deform in a non-trivial manner. In particular, we are interested in the sensing and the control of the position and the deformation of the object during the task.
