Abstract

Embarking on an innovative journey, the XR4HRC (Excellence in Extended Reality for Human-Robot Collaboration) project within the XR2Learn initiative redefines vocational training in the robotics sector through Extended Reality (XR) technologies. This endeavour aims to elevate workforce competencies, quality assurance, and human-robot synergy to new heights, perfectly aligning with the progressive vision of Industry 5.0. The XR4HRC project (see concept sketch in Figure 1), part of the XR2Learn initiative, which started on 01.01.2024, seeks to transform vocational training and quality control in the robotics and automation sectors using XR. It aims to improve training effectiveness, minimise cognitive load, and increase workforce efficiency, in line with Industry 5.0's requirements. The project highlights advanced human-machine collaboration through immersive learning experiences.
