THE AI ANGLE
Integrating into manufacturing environments alongside human workers

Eli Lilly and Purdue University tested human-robot interaction with workers around active automated guided vehicles on production floors. At RoboBusiness 2026, they will share their findings on worker perceptions and present a framework for industry-academia studies. This provides teams with tested methods to study human interactions with machinery in live facilities.
