Opinion: What is a robot? And how does it differ from a machine?

May 11, 2020 by Abdul Montaqim Leave a Comment

By Ricardo Tellez, founder and CEO of TheConstructSim

I had an interesting discussion with a reader of TheConstructSim’s newsletter recently. He was replying to my newsletter a few weeks previously, when I wrote about robots helping to fight Covid-19. 

I’ll leave out the background detail of the discussion and simply tell you that we arrived at a key point of difference between us. “It depends on what you consider a robot,” he said, adding: “For me, a washing machine is a robot.”

I did not agree. How would you feel if you were hired to build robots, and on the first day at the lab, you discover that the actual robots you have to build are washing machines? [Read more…] about Opinion: What is a robot? And how does it differ from a machine?

Collaborative robots: A helping hand in healthcare

May 11, 2020 by Mai Tao 1 Comment

By Darrell Adams, head of Southeast Asia and Oceania, Universal Robots

Covid-19, the global pandemic, took the world by surprise and suddenly the healthcare system has to confront one of the toughest challenges on a global scale.

Healthcare workers are working round the clock and the intense workload at the frontline led to exhaustion in many, virus infection in others, and some sadly passed away in their line of duty.

Millions of nurses needed

The global healthcare system is cracking under the strain of this global pandemic. Yet, a recent report shows that globally, we are in need of 6 million more nurses to achieve global health targets, even without a global pandemic. This is an alarming number, and it is unlikely that over a short period of time, the demand can be met. [Read more…] about Collaborative robots: A helping hand in healthcare

Microsurgery robot market to play ‘key role’ in advanced cardiovascular diseases and cancer treatments

May 11, 2020 by Mai Tao Leave a Comment

The microsurgery robot market is predicted to play “key role” in advanced coronavirus and cancer treatments, according to research by Global Market Insights.

The US microsurgery robot market accounted for $355.1 million in 2017, owing to increasing incidence of cardiovascular, neurovascular, oncology and other chronic diseases.

The increasing prevalence of chronic disease will favor industry growth in the region. Favorable healthcare and reimbursement policies coupled with adoption of technologically advanced microsurgery robots will promote revenue generation in the future.

Will Covid-19 accelerate the automation of parcel delivery?

May 11, 2020 by Polly Leave a Comment

As the Coronavirus pandemic has forced more of us into our homes for much longer, our habits for just about every life task have changed. Essential groceries, projects around the house and more – deliveries to our door have especially been on the rise.

According to the British Retail Consortium, online grocery shopping has increased by 28% during the pandemic, while Amazon’s global sales spiked by a similar percentage in Q1 this year.

As we become more and more familiar and comfortable with buying products without the need to travel to a physical store, it is bound to cause a knock-on effect for the industry as a whole. [Read more…] about Will Covid-19 accelerate the automation of parcel delivery?
