A robot is described as autonomous if it is independent in terms of its energy supply and can move and act on its own. In contrast to stationary learning robots - which can also act independently - autonomous mobile robots are suitable for mobile applications. For example, they are used as service robots in care, industry uses such robots for logistics processes and in accidents or disasters they are used as rescue robots.
Sensitisation of employees
Learning robots do not replace human employees, they support humans and relieve them of monotonous, dangerous and unhealthy tasks. This gives humans more time for planning and administrative tasks. For the acceptance of learning robots, this way of thinking must be exemplified and internalised.
Risk assessment
According to the Occupational Health and Safety Act, in order to avoid hazards to the safety and health of employees, the employer is obliged to carry out a risk assessment. Hazards are to be identified and assessed in order to derive effective protective measures.
