Method for creating a safety configuration

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for creating a safety configuration for an industrial machine to avoid human injuries caused by the machine, wherein the method comprises that the machine, which has at least one safety sensor, is provided, wherein the machine has a hazardous zone, a simulation is performed that simulates an operation of the machine for carrying out a production task, wherein the simulation comprises two agents, wherein a first of the agents attempts to enter the hazardous zone of the machine and a second of the agents attempts to prevent an entry into the hazardous zone by creating an adapted safety configuration from a previous safety configuration, wherein the simulation is performed iteratively, wherein a reinforcement learning is performed for the first agent and/or the second agent to obtain a changed behavior of the first agent and/or the second agent in further iterations.
