Physical Human-Robot Interaction and Cobots

We will work with the RoboDK program that is used for simulation of industrial robots.

RoboDK is already prepared in our Docker image. Check Docker tutorial for more details.

This task should teach you:

• Simulate an industrial robot
• Evaluate the safety of a given application
• Mitigate risks of an application

RoboDK introduction and HW5

Tasks:

• Make sure you have a running RoboDK version (see above for possibilities).
• Work with RoboDK and its controls (see guides), make sure you know how to:
  • Change the simulation speed
  • Control the view
  • Launch the simulation
  • Change/add a robot program
  • Add objects to the environment
  • Detect collisions
• Test these skills on an example from RoboDK, e.g., Example-06.e-Conveyor with 2 UR robots.rdk
• Familiarize ourselves with the Risk Assessment document
  • The overall methodology
  • The fill-out sheet
