How can artificial intelligence support the safety inspection of machines? What does the increasing digitalization of human-machine interaction mean for occupational safety? How robust is Industry 4.0 against cyberattacks? These and other questions will be addressed by international experts in a digital lecture series developed by the IFA in cooperation with the Section Machine and System Safety of the International Social Security Association (ISSA).
Every Monday afternoon from April 15, 2024, you can look forward to an exciting hour of lectures and discussions in English. Registration is not necessary, you can simply dial in via the registration link to the WebEx conference. Please note that the starting time varies!

May 13th 2 pm (CEST) | Industry 5.0: new Man-Machine Interaction Industry 5.0 brings benefits in terms of productivity and a lower physical load for the operator, as well as a lower cognitive load thanks also to the simplification of the processes carried out by the operator such as, for example, the execution of remotely guided/supported/operated maintenance, adaptation of the machine to one's preferences/characteristics, remodulation of real-time trajectories so as not to interfere with the operator. Faced with this new and consolidated reality, attention must certainly be paid to the possible consequences of an increasingly interdependent man-machine systems which foster trust in the machine and facilitates less prudent behaviour. | Alessandra Ferraro INAIL, Rome Italy Join seminar |
