Overview
About IHFC (TIH of IIT Delhi)
I-Hub Foundation for Cobotics (IHFC), Technology Innovation Hub of IIT Delhi, was established partnering with the Department of Science Technology (DST), Ministry of Science and Technology, Govt. of India under National Mission on Interdisciplinary Cyber Physical Systems (NM-ICPS). This brings together 3 major pillars of success from Academia, Government and Industry.
IHFC has 4 mandates under its 4 Application Areas, Medical, Agriculture, Industry and Defence. The mandates being R&D, Entrepreneurship and Startups, Skills and Training and International Collaborations.
Vision: To become the most coveted initiative in India which empowers to develop and nurture ideas offering world class solutions.
Mission: To empower growth through collaboration and build a community of innovation leaders.
What is COBOTICS
Cobotics or Collaborative Robotics is the future. Robots are increasingly becoming more powerful and adept at performing tasks that are- Dull, Dirty and Dangerous for humans. We are entering an era of manned + unmanned teaming where humans and robotic systems must work together towards common goals. Intelligent robotic teammates have the potential to expand human capabilities, reduce risk, increase safety, productivity and ultimately the quality of life for our people. Competency in human-robot collaboration is crucial for our country such that robotic systems enhance the capabilities of our workforce rather than trigger replacement.
