N2  - Human-Robot Collaborative applications have the drawback of being less efficient than their non-collaborative counterparts. One of the main reasons is, that the robot has to slow down when a human being is within the operating space of the robot. There are different approaches on dynamic speed and separation monitoring in human-robot collaborative applications. One approach additionally differentiates between human and non-human objects to increase efficiency in speed and separation monitoring. This paper proposes to estimate the separation distance by measuring the temperature of the approaching object. Measurements show that the measured temperature of a human being decreases with 1 deg C per meter distance from the sensor. This allows an estimation of separation between a robotic system and a human being.
