VERIFICATION AND VALIDATION STRATEGIES ON COLLABORATIVE ROBOTIC AGV : the process and challenges in the certification development

Abstract

Collaborative robots were called out as the infrastructure of industry 4.0. To reduce the risk of injury owing to the direct contact with robots without fence, different ways of modifications in existing designs are needed such as weight, payload, moving speed, or even more amount or aggressive sensor technologies. On top of ISO 10218, TS-15066 was published in 2016 to help developer to verify and manage the risk in the interaction. However, autonomous features such as walking or even flying with wireless reprogrammable functions has poses new challenges ahead.
