EASY-COHMO

ERGONOMICS ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS FOR CONTACTLESS HUMAN-MACHINE-OPERATION (EASY COHMO)

A joint research project funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research within the 3Dsensation research alliance.

Duration: January 2017 – December 2019

Interaction-Components for contact-free Man-Machine Operations

In the near future, the use of robotic assistance systems will become more and more important in regards to economic and social terms. Within the "Ergonomics Assistance Systems for Contactless Human-Machine-Operation" project (EASY COHMO) we will research and develop solutions to very specific, industry driven problems of the human-robot interaction (HRI) and co-operation (HRC) challenges. The subproject InKoMMO aims at the development of interaction components for contact-free, gesture-based, man-machine operation (MMI & MMK). Concepts and technologies developed in this subproject will cover important aspects of human input as well as output by the machine, and are indispensable for realizing all application scenarios of the overall project.
