Abstract
It is crucial to prevent safety accidents for human-robot collaboration. This study proposes an extended reality (XR) approach to safe HRC by calculating the minimum distance between the human operator and robot in real time. The proposed approach scans the real environment with multiple sensors and constructs its virtual space in XR. The virtual robot is synchronized with the real robot by matching the point cloud of real environment with that of the virtual robot. This system can effectively provide task assistance and safety information to the user wearing an XR device.
