Authentication and Verification in Human-Robot Cooperative Robotic Cells using Stereo Vision and Gesture Control
The integration of human-robot interaction (HRI) technologies with industrial automation has become increasingly essential for enhancing productivity and safety in manufacturing environments. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to address these challenges by using stereo vision and gesture control in cooperative robotic cells. Our system enables seamless authentication of operators and real-time verification of task execution, ensuring compliance with established protocols and safety standards. Key features of our system include its gesture-based operation with gesture recognition algorithms, allowing operators to interact with robotic systems intuitively and efficiently. By leveraging stereo vision, our system accurately tracks the operators’ movement within the workspace, facilitating precise task execution and object manipulation. We present a detailed description of our system architecture, experimental configuration, and real-world performance assessment. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of our approach in enhancing operational efficiency, ensuring quality, and improving the overall user experience in industrial automation.
