“…Some research have been conducted which involved Baxter robot for various applications and problems. For example, manipulation-based assistive robotics [50], performance assessment for point-to-point motion problem [32], and collaborative manipulation of a deformable sheet between humans and Baxter robots [51]. It is suggested that Baxter robot has a good potential for future robotic applications for home services or industrial applications.…”

The essential role of robot simulation for industrial robots, in particular the collaborative robots is presented in this chapter. We begin by discussing the robot utilization in the industry which includes mobile robots, arm robots, and humanoid robots. The author emphasizes the application of collaborative robots in regard to industry revolution 4.0. Then, we present how the collaborative robot utilization in the industry can be achieved through computer simulation by means of virtual robots in simulated environments. The robot simulation presented here is based on open dynamic engine (ODE) using anyKode Marilou. The author surveys on the use of dynamic simulations in application of collaborative robots toward industry 4.0. Due to the challenging problems which related to humanoid robots for collaborative robots and behavior in human-robot collaboration, the use of robot simulation may open the opportunities in collaborative robotic research in the context of industry 4.0. As developing a real collaborative robot is still expensive and time-consuming, while accessing commercial collaborative robots is relatively limited; thus, the development of robot simulation can be an option for collaborative robotic research and education purposes.

“…One article just mentioned that these devices might be useful for work [44]. Many articles were focusing on enabling daily rather than work related tasks of disabled people (for example [45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54]) or products that help disabled people (for example [55]). One exploratory study covered "the use of standard occupational therapy assessment tests to measure the effective manipulation ability of individuals with disabilities using a robotic aid" [56].…”

Abstract:The impact of robots on employment is discussed extensively, for example, within the academic literature and the public domain. Disabled people are known to have problems obtaining employment. The purpose of this study was to analyze how robots were engaged with in relation to the employment situation of disabled people within the academic literature present in the academic databases EBSCO All-an umbrella database that consists of over 70 other databases, Scopus, Science Direct and Web of Science and within n = 300 Canadian newspapers present in the Canadian Newsstand Complete ProQuest database. The study focuses in particular on whether the literature covered engaged with the themes of robots impacting (a) disabled people obtaining employment; (b) disabled people losing employment; (c) robots helping so called abled bodied people in their job to help disabled people; or (d) robots as coworkers of disabled people. The study found that robots were rarely mentioned in relation to the employment situation of disabled people. If they were mentioned the focus was on robots enhancing the employability of disabled people or helping so called abled-bodied people working with disabled clients. Not one article could be found that thematized the potential negative impact of robots on the employability situation of disabled people or the relationship of disabled people and robots as co-workers. The finding of the study is problematic given the already negative employability situation disabled people face.

“…The trust, satisfaction, and frustration 37 of the subjects were surveyed as they operated the robotic system under multiple normal and abnormal scenarios to see the impact that potential malicious attacks could have on these metrics, which could strongly impact whether or not amputees reject usage of their prostheses. 3,[15][16][17]38 In a parallel study within this article, simulated malicious attacks are imposed upon a Baxter robot assistant [39][40][41] that is used by 20 subjects to collaboratively perform an object delivery task. While there have been numerous studies of security on the Internet of Things, [42][43][44][45][46] this article represents the first exploration on the impact that simulated malicious attacks can have upon a human perception of wearable robotic systems and robot assistants, to the best knowledge of the authors.…”

Robot assistants and wearable devices are highly useful; however, these artificial systems are susceptible to hackers. In this article, two sets of experiments were conducted. The first part of this study simulated a malicious attack on a prosthetic arm system to adversely affect the operation of the prosthetic system, while the perception of 10 human subjects was surveyed. These 10 able-bodied subjects controlled the prosthetic arm and hand with electromyogram signals, while an artificial sensation of touch was conveyed to their arms as they operated the system, which enabled them to feel what the prosthetic hand was grasping as they were asked to transport an object from one location to another. This haptic feedback was provided in both the normal and abnormal operational modes but was disabled in the extremely abnormal mode. The electromyogram control signals for the arm were reversed in both the abnormal and extremely abnormal modes. Results from the simulated malicious attack on a prosthetic arm system showed that the subjects found the haptic feedback helpful in both the normal and abnormal modes of operation. Both the abnormal and extremely abnormal modes of operation negatively impacted the self-reported levels of trust, satisfaction, and frustration with the prosthetic system as the subjects grasped and transported an object. While these metrics were negatively impacted by system malfunctions resembling a malicious attack on the control functionality, it was possible to rebuild them to their former higher levels after the functionality of the prosthetic system was restored. A parallel study in this article involved simulating a malicious attack on a robot assistant to unfavorably affect the delivery operation modes, while the perception of 20 human subjects was surveyed. Results showed that the simulated malfunctions unfavorably impacted the perception of trust, satisfaction, and frustration, but it was possible to restore these metrics in two different ways as the device functionality was restored.
