Een krappe arbeidsmarkt en steeds meer variatie in de vraag: de uitdagingen van bedrijven in de industrie. De inzet van robots biedt kansen. Om succes te hebben moet je wel op een aantal zaken letten. In deze masterclass bespreken onderzoekers van HAN en Saxion de uitkomsten van een onderzoek naar uitdagingen …

DACAR is een methodologie voor procesmapping die wordt gebruikt om bottlenecks en aandachtspunten voor te robotiseren handmatige processtappen in kaart te brengen. Het paper introduceert de oorsprong en gebruik van DACAR voor studenten en bedrijven.

Robots are increasingly used in a variety of work environments, but surprisingly little attention has been paid to how robots change work. In this comparative case study, we explore how robotization changed the work design of order pickers and order packers in eight logistic warehouses. We found that …

The challenges facing primary education are significant: a growing teacher shortage, relatively high administrative burdens that contribute to work-related stress and an increasing diversity of children in the classroom. A promising new technology that can help teachers and children meet these challenges …

Laboratory experiments are important pedagogical tools in engineering courses. Restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic made it very difficult or impossible for laboratory classes to take place, resulting on a fast transition to simulation as an approach to guarantee the effectiveness of teaching. …

As robotic applications become increasingly diverse, more domains of human lives are being involved, now also extending to educational, therapeutic, and social situations, with a trend to even more complex interactions. This diversity generates new research questions that need to be met with an adequate …

For almost 25 years, the goal of the RoboCup has been to build soccer robots capable of winning against the FIFA World Champion of 2050. To foster the participation of the next generation of roboticists, the RoboCupJunior competition takes place in parallel and provides a similar challenge of appropriate …

The potential for Artificial Intelligence is widely proclaimed. Yet, in everyday educational settings the use of this technology is limited. Particularly, if we consider smart systems that actually interact with learners in a knowledgeable way and as such support the learning process. It illustrates …

Supporting children's language development through social robots (discussant)

De agrarische sector kampt met veel problemen zoals de hoge kosten voor arbeid en de strenge regels voor gewasbeschermingsmiddelen. Een oplossing voor deze problemen zou robotica kunnen zijn. Robots kunnen arbeidsintensieve- en complexe werkzaamheden overnemen. Momenteel zijn er nog maar weinig robots …
