  • Abstract

    Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS); Self-Reconfigurable Robotics; Industrial Automation; Robotic Manipulators; Artificial Intelligence (AI); Modular Robotics; Adaptive Manufacturing; Industry 4.0/5.0; Intelligent Manufacturing; Machine Learning (ML); Autonomous Robotics; Smart Factories; Optimization; Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). An even more compact version is: FMS; Self-Reconfigurable Robotics; Industrial Automation; AI; Modular Robotics; Adaptive Manufacturing; Industry 4.0/5.0; Smart Manufacturing; ML; Autonomous Robotics; Optimization; CPS. This retains the core concepts while reducing redundancy.
