Intelligent human-robot assembly enabled by brain EEG

• This chapter reports a framework that can facilitate the interactions between a human's EEG (electroencephalography) signals and an industrial robot. This can be achieved by using an EEG headset that captures the brain signals of the human and send it via Bluetooth to a local workstation for signal processing, feature extraction and classification. The system developed provides the ability for a shop-floor operator to control the robot using own brain signals. The system can cooperate with other channels of communications (gesture, voice, etc.) to strengthen the collaboration between the human and the robot during shared assembly operations. Such a collaboration aims to fuse the high accuracy of the robot with the high versatility of the human. Therefore, the aim is to exploit the strength of both sides and enhance the quality and adaptability of human-robot collaborative assembly operations. This approach is applicable to other types of robots as well, for example ones used for assisting people with severe disability.
