A robot must comply with very restrictive safety standards in close human-robot collaboration applications. These standards limit the robot's performance because of speed reductions to avoid potentially large forces exerted on humans during collisions. On-robot capacitive proximity sensors (CPS) can serve as a solution to allow higher speeds and thus better productivity. They allow early reactive ...
