Despite the evolution of autonomous systems, manual disassembly of electrotechnical devices persists due to the limitations associated with product variability. Effective cooperation between humans and robots is essential to overcome the constraints of disassembly. This article presents a literature review focusing on human-robot cooperation in disassembly, with the aim of summarizing existing research, identifying gaps, and defining possible contributions. The state of the art includes methodologies for product representation, task allocation between a human and a robot, and task scheduling optimization. Efficient cooperation would integrate human adaptability, robot efficiency, and direct communication, to anticipate disassembly actions to prioritize the well-being and involvement of the human at every stage of the process.
