Computing Professor Receives NSF CAREER Award to Advance Human-Robot Collaboration
Research focuses on leveraging the value of human-robot partnerships
Posted in: School of Computing
While robotics play an increasingly significant role in manufacturing systems and tasks, the next industrial revolution will require a personal human touch to be as central to operations as automation and efficiency.
New research led by Montclair State University School of Computing faculty Weitian Wang explores this not-so-distant “Industry 5.0” by leveraging the unique value of human capabilities and robotics technologies for collaborative manufacturing.
This project is supported by a 2024 National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award. It is the Foundation’s most prestigious award in support of early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education and to lead advances in the mission of their department or organization.
