Abstract

Although SMEs would benefit from robotic solutions in assembly, the required invests and efforts for their implementation are often too risky and costly for them. Here, the Horizon 2020 project 'ReconCell' aims at developing a new type of highy-reconfigurable multi-robot assembly cell which adresses the particular needs of SMEs. At the Institute for Man- Machine Interaction (MMI), we are developing 3D simulation-based user interfaces for ReconCell as the central technology to enable the fast, easy and safe programming of the system. ReconCell heavily builds on previous developments that are transferred from research and prepared for industrial partners with real use cases and demands. Thus, in this contribution, we describe MMI's software platform that will be the basis of the desired user interfaces for robot simulation and control, assembly simulation and execution, Visual Programming and sensor simulation.
