Sawyer Goes Mobile for Researchers
With seven degrees of freedom in its arm - and its new mobility platform - Sawyer SDK with Clearpaths Ridgeback platform enables researchers to deploy the robot to a wide range of tasks, providing the flexibility needed to test various projects.
MIT Created a Blind Robot That Can Run and Jump
Given the name Cheetah 3 by its developers, the robot, which weighs less than 100 pounds, is roughly the size and shape of a medium-sized dog. It's the ideal solution for crawling through narrow spaces, traversing dangerous obstacles and inspecting inaccessible areas.
Industrial Automation: How Important It Is to Choose the Right Motion Control Components
Designers have to choose from a wide variety of microprocessors, programmable logic technology, power semiconductors, motors, amplifiers, mechanical elements, sensors, and application software. Naturally, the choice goes well beyond merely selecting high-end components.
Removing Production Bottlenecks Through Automation
Universal Robots and OCTOPUZ work together to automate Fibrelines manufacturing process while providing flexibility for the future.
Greater Demand for Automation and Technological Advancements to Boost the Warehouse Robotics Market
The warehouse robotics market is growing owing to the increased demand for automation, high competition in the e-commerce industry, and the advancement in technology.
Command and Control of UAV Swarms with the Wing GCS Ground Control Station
While there have been demonstrations of swarms involving up to 1000 UAVs, there are few examples of use in practical scenarios. One reason for this is the difficulty of effectively organising and controlling the swarm using a standard transmitter and laptop computer.
What Are Robots Doing at Schools?
With the help of telepresence robots, teachers can teach a lesson from anywhere. The robots are in classrooms. Their cameras and sensors are the eyes and ears of the teacher.
The FIRST Robotics Competition
FIRST Robotics Competition is the definitive sport for the mind, where high-school students participant in building and programming industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game against robotic competitors.
Universal Robots Solves Production Challenges in Creating Revolutions' Assembly Line
The UR3 was integrated in the assembly line by Hirebotics, a Universal Robots Certified System Integrator that basically works like a staffing agency for cobots, letting startups like Creating Revolutions rent cobots by the hour without any upfront capital.
Preparing Students for the New Industry Standard
Offline Robot Programming is a technology that is quickly being implemented in manufacturing facilities all over the globe. This implementation results in an increase in efficiency, time and cost savings, and results in less down time.
The use of Inertial Sensors in Robotics
The primary uses for inertial sensors are platform stability and global positioning, but we are seeing increasing use as feedback in articulated limbs.
Can You Complete Your Project Without A Conveyor? The Pros and Cons
Lets explore some common misconceptions about conveyors, as well as some pros and cons of conveyor alternatives.
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.
