Growing Confidence in Robotics Led to US$2.7 Billion in VC Funding in 2017, With Appetite for More
In analyzing the geography of the 152 companies that received investment, there were striking differences to 2016. While in terms of the number of investments were largely similar, with the United States retaining over half the number of individual investments.
7 Reasons Your Life Depends on an Accurate IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) in a Self-Driving Car
An inertial measurement unit (IMU) is a device that directly measures the three linear acceleration components and the three rotational rate components (6-DOF) of a vehicle.
Added Value From an Ejector With Integrated Controls in a Suction Cup Handling System
Important functions provided on an ejector, and in particular all-in-one ejector, can be summarized in three major categories.
This Robot Has Soft Hands. It Could Be the Future of Sustainable Production
Traditional robots have been designed to perform a single task extremely efficiently. But when the item or the task changes, which is often the case with food, these traditional machines need to be reintegrated and reprogrammed
Are You Still Manually Programming Your Robot? Why Not Fully Automate!
Focus Auto Design Inc. originally purchased a used robot two years ago to make the jump into automating their business. However, they were manually programming this robot which took time and resources that held their business back from its optimal performance.
How Can Robotic Automation Help Alleviate Labor Shortages?
In the past evaluating automation was typically about the Return On Investment (ROI), but more and more companies are considering automation because they are not able to staff their current manual operations.
The Top Ten Autonomous Delivery Solutions of 2018
The high-costs and inefficiency of last-mile delivery make it prime real estate for automation, with the autonomous delivery market looking poised for exponential growth in the coming years.
Wave Gliders Collect Live Ocean Data from Hawaii's Kilauea Volcano Lava Flow
By using this unmanned technology, scientists have the rare opportunity to study the effects of the lava entering the ocean, the plume it creates and the interactions of the lava and seawater directly from the surface of the ocean.
More Than 110 UAS Solutions Providers Have Signed On To Exhibit At Commercial UAV Expo
