Deadline for sending applications and publications: 21. 01. 2025 at 12:00 PM (noon) Number of applications: 0 Description of the research activity: The proposed project aims at reducing the impairments of people with physical or cognitive disabilities in industrial or artisanal working contexts by assisting them with anthropocentric and emerging Industry 5. 0 technologies.
In particular, by adopting a sociotechnical perspective, the main goal is to support non-expert technical designers by developing a new design methodology to be used for the creation of “disability-friendly”, human-centered, and technology-supported industrial workplaces.
Outcomes will enhance the implementation of even more socially sustainable and disability-inclusive workplaces, where Industry 5. 0 technologies are used to assist people by adding even more value to the human.
Main activities refer to: Implementation of a technology-oriented design methodology for assisted and inclusive workplaces, particularly focusing on the definition of the design criteria for disability-inclusiveness; Case studies implementation and methodology validation, and in particular the definition of a replicable and ethical experimental protocol, the implementation of a quasi-realistic laboratory case study, the execution of the experiments, and the data elaboration and generalization of results. #J-18808- Ljbffr
