Operator 4.0 laboratory and community

Abstract:

The Operator 4.0 concept shows how we can efficiently support workers on the shop floor. The Operator 4.0 laboratory at the University of Pannonia in Hungary demonstrates how a company can develop and apply the enabling technologies of Industry 4.0 to make a human-centered working space. Behind the MTA - PE Lendulet Complex Systems Monitoring Research Lab, we call for research and industrial partners to a human-centric shop floor solution to make worthwhile production from the economic and human sides. We have the obligation and the excellent opportunity to shape these changes and challenges. For that, we are organising the Operator 4.0 community.
