Neolix inaugurates factory for manufacturing autonomous vehicles

July 10, 2019 by Mai Tao

Neolix, a maker of small autonomous delivery vehicles, has laid the foundation stone to mark the start of building a factory for manufacturing driverless vehicles. 

The company says the new facility in Changzhou will be the first unmanned vehicle mass-production base in the region, and possibly the world.

The plant will produce vehicles which have “Level 4” autonomation, which is described as “full autonomy with human driver” by the SAE. [Read more…] about Neolix inaugurates factory for manufacturing autonomous vehicles

AMP Robotics launches new AI dual-robot system for the recycling industry

July 10, 2019 by Anna

AMP Robotics, a pioneer in artificial intelligence and robotics for the recycling industry, has launched its new AMP Cortex dual-robot system (DRS) focused on material recovery in municipal solid waste, electronic waste, and construction and demolition.

The AMP Cortex DRS expands on its existing product line of high-speed recycling robotics guided by the AMP Neuron AI platform and uses two high-performance robots that rapidly sort, pick, and place materials at a speed of 160 pieces per minute.

AMP Neuron uses computer vision and machine learning to recognise different colours, textures, shapes, sizes, and patterns to identify material characteristics.

Cashier-less shopping ‘not in demand’ for US small businesses

July 10, 2019 by Anna

Small businesses should keep their cashiers, according to the 2019 Cox Business Consumer Pulse on Small Businesses in the US.

The Amazon Go cashier-less shopping model is only of growing interest among respondents ages 18-29 – up eight percentage points from last year. Seventy-seven percent of surveyed consumers prefer to interact with other people at the checkout.

The preference for person-to-person interaction likely has to do with the level of service small businesses deliver. Fifty-three percent of surveyed consumers said small businesses provide better customer service than larger businesses.
