IRP exhibits Kuka-LWR with personalized adaptive stiffness control in the annual NFF research event that presents recent relevant work to the heads of Volkswagen research. Participant could feel a Kuka-LWR adapting to the user's interaction forces, getting stiffer for slow, low-force movements and more compliant for fast, high-force movements. The presentation of PhD student Sugeeth Gopinathan's work was based on his recent results to combine human factors and
force sensing form more efficient and more ergonomic execution of tasks.
