Man robot collisions

The German Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics has run some experiments on man-machine collisions. Here, it's rather a case of a Kuku robotic arm against a mannequin head (the same as those you see in car crash-tests). This type of experiment enables the development of anti-collision and safety mechanisms to be implemented in industrial robots in order to minimize the number of potential injuries. These tests follow those we mentioned to you two weeks ago in this blog. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5Gx8jpwyQ0 via
