Cognitive Robotics and Intelligent Machines Take Center Stage at Robotics Summit & Expo 2019
The role of artificial intelligence and machine learning solutions for expanding robotics functionality emphasized at international engineering event for designers and developers of commercial robotics systems.
Business-to-Business publisher WTWH Media announced a series of keynotes, session and workshops dedicated to educating the robotics engineering community about the ways AI and machine learning technologies and techniques can be utilized by robotics systems to make them more intelligent, autonomous and functional. Topics include decision making, object identification, vision processing, autonomous navigation, motor control, sensor integration and other functions, as well as speech, facial and emotion recognition. The Robotics Summit takes place June 5-6, 2019 at the Seaport World Trade Center, Boston, MA.
Dan Kara, VP of Robotics at WTWH Media notes, "The use of AI and machine learning to improve the functionality of robotics systems is increasing dramatically. However, the rate which new cognitive robotics technologies and services are being introduced into the market is so rapid, it is very difficult for robotics engineers to track and understand new important innovations and enablers. The result is lost opportunities. We are emphasizing cognitive robotics and intelligent machines at the Robotics Summit to address this critical challenge."

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
