“…Moreover, preventive cyber-defensive measures were also discussed along other defensive strategies which highlighted the lack of training and basic security measured applied by the concerned personnel. Brandstotter et al presented a new and comprehensive safety concept for collaborative robotic systems that estimates and validates which changes on the system can be made without conducting a new risk assessment [224]. Komenda et al presented the impact of modifications on collaborative robotic cells along how they influence the risk assessment in the concept of human-machine collaboration [225].…”

The recent digital revolution led robots to become integrated more than ever into different domains such as agricultural, medical, industrial, military, police (law enforcement), and logistics. Robots are devoted to serve, facilitate, and enhance the human life. However, many incidents have been occurring, leading to serious injuries and devastating impacts such as the unnecessary loss of human lives. Unintended accidents will always take place, but the ones caused by malicious attacks represent a very challenging issue. This includes maliciously hijacking and controlling robots and causing serious economic and financial losses. This paper reviews the main security vulnerabilities, threats, risks, and their impacts, and the main security attacks within the robotics domain. In this context, different approaches and recommendations are presented in order to enhance and improve the security level of robotic systems such as multi-factor device/user authentication schemes, in addition to multi-factor cryptographic algorithms. We also review the recently presented security solutions for robotic systems.

“…[60] for a comprehensive overview). Yet compliance with the still rigid risk assessment procedures is hard to realize for flexible robot systems which plan and behave dynamically [292]. This leaves us with the strategy of an experimenter carefully overseeing the situation and operating the dead man's button [228].…”

Human-robot teaming receives an ever-increasing level of attention in research, development and industry. Novel approaches to task sharing in hybrid teams range from optimized schedules to intelligent cobot assistants with a high degree of autonomy. These approaches must prove their usefulness and benefits compared to manual work or full automation -particularly when it comes to assessing their potential for productive industrial use. This leverages demand for standardized, repeatable benchmarks to compare approaches and measure improvements in a reproducible way. Designing such benchmarks is challenging as numerous aspects, from safety considerations to human factors and team performance, must be considered. This survey seeks to contribute to the future development of benchmarks for the field of collaborative assembly, handling, and industrial cobot applications by giving a comprehensive overview of relevant metrics, evaluation strategies, and tasks for human-robot teams.

“…Examples for such modification dimensions are the workpiece dimensions, the distance of a safety sensor to the robot base and the robot speed. This means that a generous safety evaluation is accomplished during the design time and statistical and dynamic models are used to evaluate any variation along a modification dimension during runtime [26].…”

Constantly increasing variety of products and customer-specific requirements lead to more complex assembly lines in the shop floors. These new demands require novel systems and technologies such as flexible assembly lines, track and trace systems or assistive systems. In this paper, supporting systems on the physical level are analyzed and in particular robot assistance systems with respect to their safety aspects are discussed. Moreover, the current standards and guidelines in the field of robot safety and their development focus are presented. It is intended to provide a comprehensive overview of what role safety actually plays with assistance systems and how ongoing research may affect it in future.
