IMBA training for the IIDEA project team
Our IIDEA-project team took part in a training course on the “Integration of people with disabilities into the world of work” (IMBA).
IMBA is positioned at the interface of medical and occupational rehabilitation and enables a precise description and comparison of work requirements and human abilities. The training covered the basics of IMBA, with a particular focus on the defined characteristics that serve as the basis for the assessment of work requirements and abilities. A highlight of the training was the introduction to the “Marie Plus” software, which is closely linked to the IMBA concept. The training was conducted by Torsten Alles, Ph.D., Managing Director of iqpr. His extensive knowledge and experience helped to emphasize the importance of IMBA in occupational therapy and activity-based medical rehabilitation.
We are convinced that this training will support our previous research and make a valuable contribution to the IIDEA project. We are grateful for the expertise we have gained through this training and look forward to applying the acquired knowledge in our daily work.

Project launch IIDEA – Inclusion and integration through cobots on the labor market
In April, the innovative project “IIDEA – Inclusion and integration through cobots in the first labor market” was launched, which aims to empower the inclusion and integration of severely disabled people in the first labor market through collaborative robotics.
The deployment of cobots makes it possible to create new jobs and forms of work that satisfy the individual needs of severely disabled people. These new forms of work are not being established on the margins but at the heart of digitization and Industry 4.0.
In a rapidly changing world, we must focus on the needs of all people and ensure that everyone can reach their full potential. The IIDEA project is an important step towards an inclusive and inclusive society and economy.
For more information about the project, please visit the project profile. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact our staff: iidea@igmr.rwth-aachen.de.

Transformation of workplaces by human-robot collaboration (HRC) at Ford
Since April 2021, employees with disabilities have been working successfully with a collaborative robot at the production line of Ford engine plant in cologne. The robot takes over the unergonomic pressing of the VCT solenoids into the engine cover and the employee installs the screws. During this process, humans and robots work simultaneously in the same workspace. The key findings and results of the project are summarized in the strategy paper.
Further information on the project can be found here.

Teilnahme am A+A Kongress in Düsseldorf
Presentation of the Next Generation Workplace and lecture on “HRC as a tool for inclusive workplaces
At the A+A Congress in Düsseldorf, we presented the Next Generation project together with Caritas Wertarbeit Köln. The congress is attended by many interested parties and experts in the field of occupational health and safety and stimulates dialogue with many exciting presentations on current topics in these areas. On both days of the A+A Congress there were many discussions with interested participants. On the final day, Carlo Weidemann also gave a presentation on “Human-Robot Collaboration as an Assistive Medium for Inclusive Workplaces“. In addition to explaining the motivation behind the design of inclusive workplaces, this presentation also covered the inclusion projects that the IGMR is supporting and helping to shape. These are the Next Generation Project and the project with Ford to reorganise a workplace for employees who have undergone a performance change.
