Stompy: A Giant Two Seat Spider Robot
The Artisans Asylum in Boston Massachusetts s a non-profit community craft studio. In their next robotics class their goals are fairly simple: build a car-sized two-person hexapod robot and ride it. What makes their plans different from the scribbling of every 12 year old who just found Japanese animation is that the guys teaching the class have worked on projects real projects like Boston Dynamics PETMAN, AlphaDog and BigDog.
Hizook does a good job of summarizing what Artisans Asylum is and Stompy.
The project is still in the conceptual stages but the team has a blog with some of the tests and presentations they've done so far.

Festo ExoHand
The ExoHand from Festo is an exoskeleton that can be worn like a glove. The fingers can be actively moved and their strength amplified; the operator's hand movements are registered and transmitted to the robotic hand in real time. The fingers can be actively moved and their strength amplified; the operator’s hand movements are registered and transmitted to the robotic hand in real time. The objectives are to enhance the strength and endurance of the human hand, to extend humans’ scope of action and to secure them an independent lifestyle even at an advanced age.

Patent-Pending Vertical Arresting System From Macron Dynamics Opens New Possibilities For Use Of Belt Driven Actuators In Vertical Automation Applications
Macron Dynamics has introduced a new patent-pending arresting system designed for belt driven actuators used in vertical automation applications. Macron's CLAWS adds a level of security in the event of a belt failure that, until now, did not exist. In the rare instance of belt breakage or failure, CLAWS engages and prevents the vertically-oriented load from falling. In addition, belt driven linear actuators provide some distint advantages over alternatives that have previously been used in vertical motion applications, including travel length and speed.

Industrial Robotics - Featured Product
Schmalz Technology Development - Vacuum Generation without Compressed Air - Flexible and Intelligent
• Vacuum generation that's 100% electrical;
• Integrated intelligence for energy and process control;
• Extensive communication options through IO-Link interface;
Schmalz already offers a large range of solutions that can optimize handling process from single components such as vacuum generators to complete gripping systems. Particularly when used in autonomous warehouse, conventional vacuum generation with compressed air reaches its limits. Compressed air often is unavailable in warehouses. Schmalz therefore is introducing a new technology development: a gripper with vacuum generation that does not use compressed air. The vacuum is generated 100% electrically. This makes the gripper both energy efficient and mobile. At the same time, warehouses need systems with integrated intelligence to deliver information and learn. This enables the use of mobile and self-sufficient robots, which pick production order at various locations in the warehouse. Furthermore, Schmalz provides various modular connection options from its wide range of end effectors in order to handle different products reliably and safely.
