Silicon Valley Explores the Influence of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence on the Future of Technology at Global Mobile Internet Conference (GMIC)

World-renowned roboticists will convene at GMIC Silicon Valley on September 28-30 to present their most innovative robots and deliver brilliant insights on the ways that artificial intelligence will impact the future.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 29, 2015 -- On the heels of warnings from artificial intelligence experts and technologists, including Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking, on the potential dangers of robotics, GMIC's Robotics Summit will examine the role that robots play in the future of technology. Robots and artificial intelligence are poised to provide the next great leaps in technology and drive the future development of national defense, workforce, and economic activity.


GMIC's Robotics Summit will showcase the most recent advancements in robotics with presentations from technology experts on how artificial intelligence will be integrated into our daily lives to improve everything from healthcare and prosthetics to global issues of national safety and economic opportunity.

Featured events include a robot dancing session and demonstrations of the advancements in robot movement and communications methods. Summit attendees will hear from university researchers, patent-holders, and entrepreneurs who have worked with leading governments, defense, and security companies.

Robotics Summit speakers include:

* Keith Gunura - CEO & Co-founder, AG Noonee
* Homayoon Kazerooni - CEO, US. Bionics & Director of the Berkeley Robotics Human Engineering Lab
* Cory D. Kidd - CEO & Co-founder, Catalia Health
* Tim Tuttle - CEO & Founder, Expect Labs
* Anis Uzzaman - CEO & General Partner, Fenox VC

The ERT150 - Dorner’s Next Evolution of Edge Roller Technology Conveyors

The ERT150 - Dorner's Next Evolution of Edge Roller Technology Conveyors

The next evolution in Dorner's Edge Roller Technology conveyor platform, the ERT®150, is ideal for small and light-load assembly automation, as well as medical and medical-device assembly application. The ERT platform is the only pallet conveyor of its kind available with an ISO Standard Class 4 rating for cleanroom applications. Earning the ISO Standard 14644-1 Class 4 rating means Dorner's ERT150 will conform and not contribute to the contamination of cleanrooms to those standards. As implied by its name, the ERT150 (Edge Roller Technology) uses rollers to move pallets through the conveyor smoothly with no friction (a byproduct often seen in belt-driven platforms). The conveyor's open design eliminates concerns of small parts or screws dropping into rollers and causing conveyor damage or jamming. The ERT150 is suited to operate in cleanroom environments requiring a pallet handling conveyor. It is capable of zoning for no or low-back pressure accumulation and is ideal for automation assembly applications within industries including medical devices, electronics, consumer goods among others.
