The present disclosure relates to devices for facilitating collaborative interface between users and robots. The present disclosure envisages A collaborative interface device (50) for user-robot interaction, comprising a handle (1) with a joystick for user inputs, a base (2) extending from the handle with sensors (11a, 11b) to detect critical parameters and generate sensed signals. A processing unit on the base processes these signals into a processed signal. Gripping means attached to the base receive the processed signal to enable the device to grip objects held by the robot (100, 200, 300).
