Cover Story: In modern industry, there is still a large number of low-added-value processes that can be automated or semi-automated with safe cooperation between robot and human operators. The European SHERLOCK project aims to integrate an autonomous industrial mobile manipulator (AIMM) to perform cooperative tasks between a robot and a human. In this paper, we report the project's tackle in a paradigmatic industrial application combining accurate autonomous navigation with deep-learning-based 3D perception for pose estimation to locate and manipulate different industrial objects in an unstructured environment. The proposed method presents a combination of different technologies fused in an AIMM that achieve the proposed objective with promising success rates in real environments. View this paper
