Cobot

A cobot, or collaborative robot, also known as a companion robot, is a robot intended for direct, close-range human–robot interaction. Cobot applications contrast with traditional industrial robot applications in which robots are isolated from human contact or the humans are protected by robotic tech vests. Cobot safety may rely on lightweight construction materials, rounded edges, and inherent limitation of speed and force, or on sensors and software that ensure safe behavior.
