A new algorithm has been designed to enable robots to make safer decisions around humans.
In a factory setting, robots and humans can form strong teams. The robot handles repetitive tasks like assembly with speed and precision, while the human performs complex duties like quality control.
Humans, by nature, are prone to mistakes, to the unexpected.
These unpredictable actions can throw even the most sophisticated robot off course, creating situations it isn’t programmed to handle.
