초록

This study suggests a layer of information system architecture for interactive Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC) assembly based on shared CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and BOM (Bill of Material) databases. The layer consists of several interfaces for HRC and shares CAD and BOM databases in the base system architecture established by previous studies. The HRC interfaces include a BOM editor as a planning editor, a robot path simulator and Interactive Language for robot assembly execution. Interactive Language provides flexible controls and communications between human operators and robot systems. To test its feasibility, this study implements the architecture as an information system with CAD and BOM databases coupled to a robot manipulator, and applies an example product to the system. Finally, this study examines HRC aspects of the proposed architecture with known characteristics of advanced HRC systems to clarify its characteristics and limitations.
