Test Robot Arm for Collision with a Movable Object (measurement of pressure over time)

The specific purpose of this protocol is to validate the safety skill “limit interaction energy” by measurement. Its scope is limited to robot arms operating in the domain Manufacturing. In this context, the skill “limit interaction energy” is often used to protect workers from injuries caused by robot collisions where the robot hits a part of the human body that can freely move. The validation of this protocol requires that the reader has a bio-fidel force and pressure measurement device available. The instrument must allow for measuring the pressure history during the collision.
