TRANSCRIPT
Being safe around collaborativeand versatile robots in shared spacessafearoundrobots.com
Action: H2020 ICT-2017-27c – Robotics Innovation action
Duration: January 2018 – December 2021
Budget: €10.7M
▪ Significantly reduce the complexity in safety certifying cobots.
▪ Establish open COVR toolkit to determine exactly which validation procedures are necessary for safety certification.
▪ Develop testing protocols
▪ Create network of cobot test hubs across Europe.
Ambition
Perimeter : robot technology sharing space with humans
excluded: drones, autonomous road vehicles, military use, intracorporeal
Application domains :
▪ Manufacturing
▪ Rehabilitation
▪ Logistics
▪ Agriculture
SHARED SAFETY FACILITIES
= COVR partners
→ extension (after the H2020 project)
To support the development, certification and deployment of a cobot or cobot integration
by increasing
its perceived and/or real safety
▪ Test and measure safe limits
▪ Develop technology
▪ Develop testing protocols and methods
Beta-test and enrich the COVR toolkit and testing protocols
FSTPOBJECTIVES
▪ 5M€ in financial support to 3rd party cobotdevelopment
▪ 60k€ maximum per project/entity
