Abstract
A robotic system to facilitate simultaneous human laborer and robotic tasks on an article. The system includes data acquisition from a non-point cloud camera and implementation by a mid-tier consumer grade workstation. Nevertheless, a motion plan may be carried out by the robotic aid in a manner that allows for 'on-the-fly' adjustment to a second motion plan to avoid collision with the laborer during the performed tasks.
