SENSAFE: Human Safety in Human-Robot Cooperation
Human-Robot Interaction
Research on human safety assessment in human-robot shared workspaces.
A challenge of applying mobile robots to our daily life is safety: how to ensure that robots will reliably assist human, not harm them.
In SENSAFE we suppose that human and service robots share the workspace, and implicitly or explicitly cooperate to finish assigned tasks. Risks of human in the workspace essentially come from the attack of robots caused by its functioning failures or misunderstanding between human and the robots.
The objective of SENSAFE is to develop experiments for assessing safety levels of human co-working in the shared workspace.
