The Future of Autonomous and Wireless Charging
The real driver of change has been the need to reduce manual intervention and lower operational costs. When a robot can charge itself safely and autonomously, maintenance downtime drops dramatically, and so does total cost of ownership.
European researchers developed energy-efficient machine vision inspired by human eyesight and the brain
This enables, for instance, intelligent robots and drones that can operate independently in a rescue mission after an earthquake without constant network connections or bulky batteries.
2025 Top Article - ANYbotics ANYmal robot is addressing key challenges in Industrial Robotics
The ANYmal robot addresses key challenges in industrial operations by offering autonomous, highly mobile inspection capabilities in complex and hazardous environments. Its four-legged design enables navigation through uneven terrains, stairs, and confined spaces.
2025 Top Article - Purpose-Built, Specialized Robots are the Future
Wheeled robots like ours are more efficient for the same reason cycling is more efficient than running, which includes less of a fight with gravity. The efficiency, as well as the sheer complexity of humanoid robots adds up to something that may be very much higher cost.
2025 Top Article - The Ultimate Guide to Depth Perception and 3D Imaging Technologies
Depth perception helps mimic natural spatial awareness by determining how far or close objects are, which makes it invaluable for 3D imaging systems. Get expert insights on how depth perception works, the cues involved, as well as the various types of depth sensing cameras.
How U.S. Manufacturing VPs Can Close the Execution Gap — The New Playbook for Operational Excellence
Operational excellence used to mean efficiency. Now, it means consistency.
In a volatile manufacturing environment, the winners aren't those with the best machines or biggest budgets — they're the ones who can execute the same playbook flawlessly, every day, on every lin
The Right 3D Vision Scanner for Robotic Programming: Laser Profilers vs Structured Light Scanners in Industrial Automation
By combining flexible vision technology with automated processing, manufacturers and system integrators can shorten deployment cycles, reduce reliance on fixtures, and achieve the adaptability needed for high-mix, high-precision production.
