Project details:

COMANOID investigates the use of humanoid robots in Airbus commercial airliner assembly focusing on operations that are laborious and protracted for human workers and inaccessible for wheeled or rail-based robots. A key challenge will be to integrate current scientific and technological advances, including multi-contact planning and control, perception and localization, aspects of robot safety and the operational processes of “cobotic” solutions for aircraft assembly tasks, into an effective overall system.
