# HRC-SoS: Human Robot Collaboration Experimentation Platform as System of Systems

## TL;DR

This paper introduces an experimentation platform for human-robot collaboration, emphasizing a system of systems approach and a framework focusing on awareness, intelligence, and compliance, supported by various subsystems including digital twins and physiological monitoring.

## Contribution

It proposes a novel experimentation platform and a conceptual framework for human-robot collaboration, integrating multiple subsystems and demonstrating their use through case studies.

## Key findings

- Subsystems enable comprehensive monitoring and control in collaboration tasks.
- The platform effectively supports experiments involving physiological feedback.
- Case studies validate the framework's applicability in real scenarios.

## Abstract

This paper presents an experimentation platform for human robot collaboration as a system of systems as well as proposes a conceptual framework describing the aspects of Human Robot Collaboration. These aspects are Awareness, Intelligence and Compliance of the system. Based on this framework case studies describing experiment setups performed using this platform are discussed. Each experiment highlights the use of the subsystems such as the digital twin, motion capture system, human-physiological monitoring system, data collection system and robot control and interface systems. A highlight of this paper showcases a subsystem with the ability to monitor human physiological feedback during a human robot collaboration task.
