Abstract
The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is developing new metrology toward the evaluation and assurance of collaborative robot performance in next- generation manufacturing. A significant research thrust along these lines involves the advancement of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) to enable the intuitive use and integration of collaborative robots in human-robot and robot-robot teams. This paper discusses a manufacturing-centric perspective of the evolution of human-robot interaction, tools of interest for advancement, and outlines some of NIST's relevant efforts toward imbuing robotic systems with ML and AI to improve operational performance, communication of task-relevant information, situation awareness, and ease of integration.
