Exploring the synergies between collaborative robotics, digital twins, augmentation, and industry 5.0 for smart manufacturing: A state-of-the-art review

Industry 5.0 aims at establishing an inclusive, smart and sustainable production process that encourages human creativity and expertise by leveraging enhanced automation and machine intelligence. Collaborative robotics, or “cobotics”,is a major enabling technology of Industry 5.0, which aspires at improving human dexterity by elevating robots to extensions of human capabilities and, ultimately, even as team members. A pivotal element that has the potential to operate as an interface for the teaming aspiration of Industry 5.0 is the adoption of novel technologies such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR) and haptics, together known as “augmentation”. Industry 5.0 also benefit from…
