The digitalisation of industry depends on the successful integration of workers with robots. Also important is the use of robots capable of performing safe operations with a minimum amount of robot set-up time and costs and increased flexibility of configuration on the shop floor. The EU-funded Sestosenso project will develop new sensing technology from hardware to cognitive perception and control levels for the next generations of collaborative robots. The technology is based on tactile and proximity sensors embedded in the robot's body to provide a unified tactile perception of the environment, thus controlling the robot's actions and interactions in a safe and autonomous way. Sestosenso will perform three industrial demonstrations in the fields of automotive, logistics and agriculture.
