Abstract:
As factories thrive to produce better and more precise products, the cognitive load increases and the factory workers performance starts to affect the results. This paper presents a possible solution that aims to help the assembly line workers by reducing their cognitive load when looking for the tasks they need to execute for each product and consequently help the business. The proposed solution focuses on a support interface designed to grab the worker’s attention to the most important information and uses it to integrate the human in the loop of a Cyber-Physical System (CPS). In this paper, we present the architecture of the developed and constructed CPS, which contains the interface, a robotic arm and an artificial vision system.
