This book presents a set of innovative solutions to human-centric manufacturing systems, offering critical insights and comprehensive application guidelines for understanding how to realize human-centric smart manufacturing by exerting its power and influence towards Industry 5.0.

While human-centric manufacturing possesses a substantial and growing body of knowledge, there are distinct research gaps that are not sufficiently addressed. With the development of enabling technologies, it is necessary to propose more precise, robust, and practical approaches in support of smart manufacturing towards Industry 5.0. As a response to the new research opportunities, this book presents and highlights the latest development on applying advanced techniques in human-centric manufacturing. The book will be of interest to a broad readership, from academic researchers to practicing engineers

This book characterizes key technologies and applications of human-robot interaction in smart manufacturing and provide references for facilitating paradigm shift and the sustainable development of human-machine interaction. It includes mainly four aspects: human motion perception and reconstruction, analysis of human motion, intuitive human-robot teleoperation based on IMU-based motion perception, and enhanced human-robot collaboration through motion estimation. Human-robot interaction has great potential for development based on key technologies for digitization, networking, and intelligentization. It is crucial to utilize the advantages of human to improve the human-robot system’s capabilities. The book features detailed illustrations, informative tables, and research algorithms designed to facilitate understanding of complex concepts. These elements not only enhance the reading experience but also serve as valuable references for applied research and real-world implementation. The book will be useful for advanced students, researchers, engineers, developers, and entrepreneurs interested in human-robot interaction research and technologies.
