In industry and in other production processes digitalization plays an ever-growing role, also with effects on occupational safety, health and well-being. Cyber security, the IoT, AI and machine learning, virtual and augmented reality, robotics and cobots, all are 'tools' being applied more and more consistently.

This Symposium will present good practices, backed by scientific evidence, addressing topics such as remote access control, cloud connection, new human-machine-interfaces, virtual interfaces, integration of assistance systems, new types of smart protection devices, etc., in order to draw a complete picture of a modern, digitalized and prevention-oriented production system.

The Symposium will be an opportunity for interested participants to continue working with us on these topics on a project basis to make results available to a larger OSH audience.
