Abstract [eng] This minitrack is dedicated to the employment of collaborative robots (cobots) in emergency situations. Cobots are robots that are built for direct human-robot collaboration (HRC) in a shared environment. It focuses on the idea that collaboration between people and robots must go much farther - rather than viewing robots as tools or mobile sensors, they must be viewed as team members especially in predictable environments such as production lines, towards disaster zones, and in emergency circumstances. In the aftermath of earthquakes, accidents, avalanches, or explosions, cobots can work with human counterparts to reduce the risk to human life and increase the possibility of rescuing people.
