  • Abstract
    This paper presents a concept for reconfigurable sensor based robotics for industrial manufacturing applications. Within the concept a robot system is able to carry out tasks autonomously or it can be operated with human in the loop. The robot actions are based on sensory operations, able to support both non-contact sensing as well as physical interaction. A modern industrial robot provides an excellent, easy to adjust platform for reconfigurable sensor based robotics. The new concept is explained in details in different phases with examples in laboratory or industrial environments.
