Demonstration with a Robot, ClaXon project (10 shots). The goal of the ClaXon project is to research how scientists and industrial partners can improve human-robot collaboration (HRC) in the manufacturing industry. Using new sensors such as 3D cameras, ClaXon aims to optimise the interaction between robots, products and humans. Ultimately, ClaXon hopes to foster the social acceptability of robots, while simultaneously studying the economic feasibility of HRC.

2 researchers showing different stages of MIRAD project: a lower limb assistive exoskeleton (10 shots). The main project goal is to generate generic scientific and technological knowledge that is applicable to the wider area of robotic devices that dynamically interact with humans, such as orthoses, prostheses, rehabilitation or training equipment, and teleoperation and assistive devices for industry.
