Abstract
<jats:p>As robot technology becomes more widely used in manufacturing and other industrial settings, the area of human-robot interaction (HRI) in industrial settings is becoming more and more essential. In industrial settings where people and robots collaborate, safety is of utmost importance. To avoid mishaps and injuries, safety precautions such as risk assessments, safety sensors, and physical barriers (such as fences or cages) are crucial. Collaborative robots are Cobots, as opposed to conventional industrial robots, which are made to work side by side with people in a shared workspace. Cobots are frequently outfitted with sophisticated sensors and software that enable them to recognise and respond to human presence, guaranteeing safe contact. Careful task design is necessary for human-robot collaboration to be effective in utilising the capabilities of both parties. Robots are usually more suitable for jobs that require repetitive motion or physical exertion, whereas humans are better at activities that call for dexterity, flexibility, and judgement.</jats:p>
