Best Practices for Real-Time Machine Automation Performance in IoT & Industry 4.0
Learn how IntervalZeros RTOS platform transformed machine automation in Japan
These Robots Crawl Into Every Nook and Cranny
The latest addition is a small crawler robot that magnetically "sticks" to metal walls and is able to move in all directions. It carries cameras, sensors and tools for inspection or maintenance work in tight pipes and on the outer hulls of tanks or ships.
Robotics and Automation Transformation Omni-channel and Supply Chain
Decades of supply chain implementation translates to a strategic partnership in designing, implementing, and maintaining complex end-to-end supply chain enterprise solutions from transportation, labor, warehousing, and supply chain visibility.
What is a Botnet?
A bot herder, is an individual who controls and maintains a botnet by installing malicious software in many computers, placing these devices under his/her control. These "herds" of bot machines, also called zombies, can then be used to attack or infect other computers.
The Future of Service Robots
There has been a lot of investment by retailers in recent years to achieve a true omni-channel fulfillment strategy. Robots are enabling companies to improve the fulfillment process both in the warehouse and will soon be doing so in the retail store.
Meet the Robots Taking Over a Tokyo Airport for the 2020 Olympics
The majority of incoming tourists will first encounter robots in the Tokyo Airport. At the time of this writing, there are seven different robots stationed at the airport. Each one features a unique and friendly archetype
How to Design a Real-Time Operating System (RTOS)
Real-time operating systems rely on kernel designs to expedite process communication and synchronization functionalities.
Industrial Robots: Encoders for Tool Center Point Accuracy
The use of secondary encoders on all of a robots axes, as well as the use of linear encoders for positioning the robot relative to the workpiece, enables a level of accuracy at the tool center point
Autonomous Underground Mining Vehicles Are a Thing Now
Depending on how tests of below-ground and above-ground equipment progress, multiple technologies could be incorporated into single vehicles to make them maximally adaptable to operator needs.
Mobile Robotics: Thinking in Terms of Fleet Productivity Is Key to Success
In this article, we will explore the basis and the future implications of this major transition. We will focus on two applications in particular: agriculture and last mile delivery.
The Delivery Robots are Coming!
When people look up at the sky, they see more and more drones. Yet the breakthrough for delivery robots will take place on the ground - if the lawmakers give the green light.
University of Virginia Maps Historic Tunnel Using Jackal UGV
The team was able to easily visualize and monitor collected data as they were conducting the survey. As one team member tele-operated the Jackal, another member connected wirelessly via SSH to the robot to visualize the data in RViz on a laptop.
