  • Abstract
    We have proposed "Attentive Workbench (AWB)," a new cell production system in which an intelligent system supports human workers. Using cameras, projectors, self-moving trays driven by 2D linear motors and so on, the system recognizes the worker\´s condition and intention and supports the workers from both physical and informational aspects. In this report, a method for controlling multiple self-moving trays keeping their formation is presented.
