摘要

The rapid advancement of automation and the evolution of Human-Machine Collaboration (HMC) are particularly significant within modern manufacturing and design processes and fits into the main ideas and development trends of robotics and industry 4.0/5.0. This article presents preliminary tests and a potential pathway for developing a Human-Robotic Collaboration (HRC) system built upon a Digital Twin and integrated within a fully immersive eXtended Reality (XR) environment. The evolution of virtual reality, combined with image processing techniques from augmented reality, has led to term of eXtended Reality (XR). The work objective was to create and make ready to test a low-entry level automation solution by combining a physical collaborative workstations and simulation environment within an XR natural interfaces as unified Cyber-Physical System (CPS). However, further quantitative analysis regarding both usability in both academic laboratories and industrial environments are required.
