Our researchers, Mats Isaksson and Jared Donovan were in attendance to celebrate the IMCRC's achievements and showcase the outcomes of the projects they led through the IMCRC.
🌟 Jared Donovan from QUT (Queensland University of Technology) led the "Design Robotics for mass customisation manufacturing" project which was a collaboration between UAP | Urban Art Projects, QUT (Queensland University of Technology) and RMIT University. The project used innovative robotic vision systems and software user-interfaces to reduce the integration time between design and custom manufacturing. The team integrated the systems with industrial robots and improved the manufacture of high-value, complex products in time and cost.
The project also won the CRC Association's 2020 Award for Excellence and led to the formation of our industry partner, ARM Hub (Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing).
Other Australian Cobotics Centre researchers involved in the project included: Glenda Caldwell, Jonathan Roberts, Cori Stewart and many more!
🌟 Mats Isaksson from Swinburne University of Technology led the Tradiebot project which was an industry collaboration with Tradiebot , supported by AMA Group. The project used 3D printing technologies in conjunction with novel polymer material solutions to enable a low cost rapid repair service for automotive plastic trim and assembly components.
In plastic repairs for automotive collision repair services, the ability to rapidly manufacture an integrated replacement part directly on the damaged component will reduce repair cost, time, waste and environmental impact.

1️⃣ The first is based at the Australian Cobotics Centre and is a joint scholarship with CSIRO's Data61's Collaborative Intelligence (CINTEL) Future Science Platform and will be co-supervised by CSIRO's Dr Claire Mason.
The Phd Project will conduct research in human-robots collaboration, in particular in the design of collaborative robots to improve the motivating potential of work for humans and the transformative potential of artificial intelligence and connective technology. The candidate will receive a stipend of $34,013 pa (indexed) More info here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gWWbp8_3
2️⃣ The second is to work with Penny on her DECRA funded project
on automated people management, this PhD project aims to understand the data gathered by these technologies, and how organisations use and protect that employee data. The candidate will receive a stipend of $30,000pa. More info here 👉https://lnkd.in/g_9n6Kbi

Brisbane-based design and manufacturing company UAP | Urban Art Projects embarked on an $8 million design robotics research project in partnership with QUT (Queensland University of Technology) and RMIT University. With the support of IMCRC, UAP invested in robotic vision systems and developed smart user-interfaces that enabled them to manufacture bespoke artwork and architecture pieces here in Australia.
