Human-Robot Interaction Safety Algorithm (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786208451844)

As collaborative robots (cobots) increasingly enter our daily lives, ensuring safe and effective interaction between humans and robots has become a pressing challenge-especially in the dynamic, unstructured environment of the home. This book explores a novel safety algorithm for human-robot interaction (HRI), focusing on minimizing the risk of injury during close-contact tasks. Using the open-source Gazebo simulator and a 7-degree-of-freedom Kinova Gen3 robotic arm, the study demonstrates how velocity and trajectory control can prevent collisions and adapt to obstacles in real time. The proposed approach is validated against international safety standards (ISO/TS 15066:2016), highlighting its potential for real-world application. Unlike traditional research that centers on industrial contexts, this work pioneers safety strategies tailored specifically for domestic HRI. Ideal for robotics researchers, engineers, and safety designers, this book bridges the gap between simulation and reality, offering actionable insights into building safer home-based robotic systems.
