Ergonomics-focused XR training in human-robot collaborative picking lines
The rapid adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies may bring unintended consequences, including new ergonomic challenges, shifts in job satisfaction, and risks of worker displacement.

Ergon-Pick will develop immersive training scenarios for the VIROO platform using the Ergon-XR tool, which will equip trainee workers with the knowledge required to co-exist with robotic systems in mixed human-machine workspaces in a manner that prioritises health and safety.
The educational scenarios will be developed as interactive XR modules that teach ergonomics best practices within automated manufacturing environments featuring robots and conveyors.
