In today’s world, robotics plays an increasingly central role in various industries and areas of everyday life. Robots are no longer just capable of performing simple or repetitive tasks. Whether service robots, medical robots, assistance systems or specialized applications – they are now able to tackle complex tasks that require precise interaction with their environment and a high level of safety. This involves the integration of various disciplines such as software, electronics, mechanics, control engineering and functional safety within a robotic system. With a multitude of sensors and actuators, they form highly complex systems that must still be easy and error-free to operate.
Only the perfect synergy of all necessary competencies allows us to address the challenges of development from different perspectives and to understand and master the system as a whole. This ultimately leads to the successful development of a market-ready robot.
In this webinar, we will draw on our robotics engineering expertise and share the experiences we’ve gained from 30 years of development practice. After a brief introduction to the field of robotic systems, we will address the challenges that can arise during the various phases of the development process, from the initial idea to implementation. Using different case studies, we will highlight common pitfalls and offer potential solutions. The range of topics will extend from methodological approaches to specific practical tips.
Dr. Tobias Luksch is a robotics specialist at the Healthcare business unit of ITK Engineering. In this role, he coordinates, among other things, pre-development work in the field of robotics and has been working as a project manager and developer in robotics customer projects for 11 years. Dr. Luksch studied computer science with a focus on robotics, adaptive systems, machine learning and control engineering at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (formerly University of Karlsruhe). He then earned his doctorate in the Robotics Systems Group at the Technical University of Kaiserslautern, focusing on biologically inspired motion generation for humanoid robots, behavior-based control architectures and mobile robotics. Subsequently, he conducted postdoctoral research at the Honda Research Institute in Offenbach on topics such as adaptive robot control based on dynamic systems and predictive sequencing of motion primitives.
