A3's Automate 2026 Opens Next Week in Chicago

North America's largest robotics and automation event brings humanoids, AI, industrial robots and the future of automation to McCormick Place June 22-25

The Missing Layer in Robotics Adoption: Why Emerging Markets Need Commercialization Labs

For robotics manufacturers, growth in emerging markets will depend as much on local integration, ROI validation, training, financing, and service infrastructure as on hardware capability.

Why Good Automation Projects Start Slower Than Bad Ones

The dangerous part of automation is the false confidence that comes before the robot is even built. The companies that win with automation usually spend less time being impressed by the demo and more time questioning the process behind it.

How Physical AI Is Closing the Gap Between Simulation and the Shop Floor

These are systems that do not simply simulate the physical world but actively reason about it and act on it in real time, powered by a spatial computing stack combining foundation models, AI-generated software, and high-fidelity 3D sensing.

Why a Robotics Company is Only as Strong as Its Worst Day

In robotics, there's peak performance, and there's everyday performance. The strain of scaling from the controlled pilot environment to the uncontrolled stress of real-time operations is where many deployments fall apart.

Autonomous Robotics and Physical AI in Next-Generation Manufacturing

Autonomous robots can perform tasks with limited human intervention, while Physical AI gives machines the ability to understand their environment, make decisions, and interact with the physical world more effectively.

Argonne Researchers to Develop Learning-Based Robots as Step Toward a Scientific Assistant

What if robots could not only perform experiments but also adapt and improve alongside human scientists? The goal is to create robots that can work alongside scientists in real lab environments and adjust to changing conditions.

How Manufacturers Can Move from Basic Automation to Autonomous Material Movement in Production Logistics

For too long, material movement has been treated as a background function. But advanced motion and robotics are changing that by giving manufacturers the tools to treat material flow as a strategic and competitive lever that they can tune, optimize, and adapt.

139th Canton Fair Sets New Record with Overseas Buyer Attendance

The number of new products introduced rose 27%, and events for emerging future industries increased 30%. The fair also showcased AI-enabled scenarios for the first time, including robotic patrol inspections and drone flight demonstrations.

The Manufacturing Executive's New Shield: Closing the Records Liability Gap

Regulators are no longer content to penalize the company name on the factory gate; they are naming the specific executives who run the manufacturing floor.

Micro-Scale Robotics in the Medical Field: Precision Automation Meets Health Care Innovation

When people think about medical robotics, they may consider machinery that takes up most of a room, like MRI machines. The world of micro-scale robotics in health care has advanced just as significantly, enabled by enhancements in precision, data analytics and more.

The Missing Layers in the Robotics Security Stack

Robotics today is like the cloud ecosystem of the early 2010s - scaling rapidly, but riddled with security risks and vulnerabilities.

What It Takes to Deploy Humanoid Robots in Real World Industry

Since humanoids are most viable in environments where they can adapt to human-designed workflows without requiring extensive infrastructure changes. Still, successful deployment will hinge on meeting a set of practical operational constraints.

The Mass Penalty Spiral: Why Humanoid Robotics Needs "Physical AI"

This article explores the "Mass Penalty Spiral" and why the transition to Physical AI is the only path toward viable humanoid deployment.

ATEC2026 Launches as the "Turing Test" for Embodied AI, Challenging Robots to Survive the Real World

Unlike traditional competitions limited to indoor or scripted tasks, ATEC2026 evaluates whether robots can autonomously complete long-horizon, continuous complex tasks in open, dynamic, and unstructured real-world environments.

ResinDek TRIGARD ESD ULTRA FOR HIGH-TRAFFIC ROBOTIC APPLICATIONS

ResinDek TRIGARD ESD ULTRA FOR HIGH-TRAFFIC ROBOTIC APPLICATIONS

To maximize the productivity of an autonomous mobile robot (AMR) or automatic guided vehicle (AGV) deployment, it's critical to create the optimal environment that allows the vehicles to perform at their peak. For that reason, Cornerstone Specialty Wood Products, LLC (www.resindek.com) created the TriGard ESD Ultra finish for its ResinDek engineered flooring panels. The TriGard ESD Ultra finish is ideal for high-traffic robotic applications characterized by highly repetitive movement patterns and defined travel paths.
