About
Aiert Amundarain is a leading researcher at the intersection of virtual reality (VR), human-robot collaboration, and aerospace manufacturing, with a focus on optimizing the complex workflows of aircraft final assembly lines. His work is pivotal in addressing the industry 4.0 challenge of automating processes that have traditionally remained manual. Amundarain’s major contributions include developing a VR simulation framework for human-robot coexistence, which allows for process evaluation and ergonomic assessment before physical deployment—a study that has garnered 52 citations. He also created a flexible modeling framework for industry 4.0 processes in virtual simulators (37 citations), enabling dynamic testing of worker activities. His foundational work on the SIMFAL H2020 Clean Sky 2 project, part of the EU ACCLAIM initiative, provides a structured approach to simulating and optimizing automated assembly tasks for cabin and cargo interiors. With a clear focus on bridging digital twins and physical production, Amundarain’s research directly enhances safety, efficiency, and ergonomics in high-stakes manufacturing environments, making him a key figure in advancing smart factory solutions for the aerospace sector.
