The Ultimate Dream: Clean-up Cobots

Automatically cleaning up workplaces, workshops (and, from a parent’s point of view, childrens‘ rooms) is one of the major tasks in smart industry and smart home. We present a new case study from the TU Dresden Excellence Cluster „Centre for Tactile Internet with Human-in-the-Loop” (CeTI), a clean-up robot coupling cyber-space and reality, a first step to an automatic clean-up of things dispersed on tables, floors, workbenches, and conveyor belts. The application combines modern computer graphics and software engineering aspects.
