A demonstrator for human-robot collaboration with augmented reality for future evaluations of user experiences

Industries are becoming more and more demanding with new technology and trying to improve the productivity of their lines by adding technological methods and thus obtaining greater flexibility and time savings. One of these methods is to train their workers with the new augmented reality technology, which saves training time since the user can learn independently by following the steps indicated on the device. Another method is to add robots to the production line to carry out those tasks that are supposed to be repetitive and tiring for humans. To squeeze more and get the best out of the robot and the human, companies choose to combine their virtues and put them working together hand in hand as a human-robot collaboration.In this project, the demonstrator includes an assembly car process realized in a human-robot collaboration system, where the human and the collaborative robot communicate through an augmented reality device, Hololens2. This demonstrator might be used for user experience studies to evaluate if the human can realize an assembly process following the instructions in a head-mounted device without previous experience and collaborate with a robot.
