A Unified Dashboard for Collaborative Robot Management System

Industry Revolution 4.0 transforms product design and fabrication. It revolutionize how manufacturing operates and performs maintenance. Information Technology plays a crucial role in IR4.0 that drives the digitalization of manufacturing. The combination of Information Technology with Operational Technology forms the core of Smart Manufacturing. It works beyond automation and machine-to-machine communications. Among the benefits of IR4.0 are enhanced efficiency in production, mass-customization of product, zero downtime, extended tool life and energy efficiency. Robotics is an ideal smart technology of IR4.0. Current trend in Robotics introduces the deployment of collaborative robot, for SME. However, monitoring and interaction with such system comes with additional challenges especially in large-scale deployment. Dashboard application becomes more important for such system to have a better management. Most of the existing applications are managed in an isolated system even within the same factory, thus make it difficult to maintain and troubleshoot if problems occur. In this paper, we proposed a design of centralized dashboard application with interactive 3D visualization and informative visualization for managing and troubleshooting COBOT System.
