Digital Transformation Towards Human-Centricity: A Systematic Literature Review Chapter in Scopus uri icon

abstract

  • The advent of Industry 4.0, over its decade-long evolution, primarily concentrated on digital and smart technologies to enhance production efficiency, often overlooking human involvement and environmental considerations. Despite the recent emergence of Industry 5.0 as a new research paradigm, its exploration is still in its early stages, with limited systematic investigation and a lack of empirical evidence. Therefore, this paper aims to examine the research topics at the intersection of ¿Human-Centricity¿ and ¿Industry 5.0¿ in the field of manufacturing as covered by academic journals and conference proceedings. We used the systematic literature review method PRISMA to identify 77 publications. The results portray six avenues for future research: (i) Human-Centric Design and Human-Robot Interaction, (ii) Industry 5.0 Frameworks and Theoretical Models, (iii) AI and Advanced Data Analytics, (iv) Smart Manufacturing and Sustainability, (v) Training, Skills Development, and Worker Wellbeing, and (vi) Ergonomics and Safety in Manufacturing. © IFIP International Federation for Information Processing 2024.
