Human centric innovation at the heart of industry 5.0 – exploring research challenges and opportunities
本研究从生产与运营管理角度深化对工业5.0的理解，强调人在技术创新中的核心作用，识别了工业4.0与5.0的关键技术差异，并提出了围绕可持续性、韧性和以人为中心的研究机会，同时分析了全球劳动力技能提升的挑战与障碍。
This study advances the understanding of Industry 5.0 by exploring its conceptualisation through the lens of production and operations management, emphasising the integration of human roles throughout industrial evolution. Addressing a critical gap in the literature, we highlight the impact of human involvement in technological innovation and examine previously unexplored human experiences in Industry 5.0. We differentiate between human-centric AI and industry AI, identifying technologies that drive both Industry 4.0 and 5.0, and propose emerging research opportunities around sustainability, resilience, and human-centricity. Additionally, we analyze the global need for upskilling and reskilling the workforce, emphasising key challenges in both developed and developing economies. Our study also identifies major barriers to the transition to Industry 5.0, offering strategies to enhance human-centricity by aligning technological advancements with human values. Ultimately, this research paves the way for a deeper understanding of Industry 5.0, advocating for a future where technology and humanity co-evolve harmoniously.
