8. Projects for Worker-Centred Technology
Factories of the Future: Ongoing Projects
Projects for Worker-Centred Technology
INCLUSIVE Smart and adaptive interfaces for an inclusive work environment Inclusive has developed a new concept of interaction between the user and the machines in which the behaviour of the automation system adapts to human operator capabilities.
MANUWORK Balancing Human and Automation Levels for the Manufacturing Workplaces of the Future MANUWORK is creating a framework for workplace adaptation based on socio-organizational factors. It will also develop an advanced shop-floor tool, facilitating AR technologies, which will be used for knowledge capturing, networking, guidance and decision support.
Inclusive is an ongoing project (due to finish in 2019)
