About
Marina Crnjac is a researcher at the forefront of human-robot collaboration (HRC) in advanced manufacturing, with a particular focus on integrating collaborative robots (cobots) into learning factory environments. Her work centers on optimizing assembly processes where humans and robots work side-by-side, addressing the growing industrial need for flexible, efficient, and safe production systems. Her most cited paper, "Integration of the human-robot system in the learning factory assembly process" (2020, 18 citations), demonstrates how HRC can be practically applied to a small vehicle assembly line, quantifying time savings and workflow improvements. She further advances this field through "Selection of the Cobot Workstation for the Learning Factory by Using the Multi-Criteria Analysis" (2022, 7 citations), where she develops a systematic framework for choosing optimal cobot workstations—a critical decision for manufacturers transitioning to hybrid workforces. By bridging theoretical multi-criteria decision-making with real-world factory floor applications, Crnjac provides actionable insights for both educators and industry practitioners. Her research is particularly valuable for students and engineers seeking to understand how to design, evaluate, and implement human-robot systems that enhance productivity without sacrificing safety.
