Intralogistics and warehouses are facing huge demand pressures and are turning to automation.

For most operators, the most feasible approach is to introduce AMRs that work alongside humans in dynamic environments.

This type of implementation presents challenges that are different from the ones faced by previous generations of AGVs and automation equipment. [Read more…] about Webinar: What is required of AMRs in order to meet current warehouse challenges?

Find the Best Warranties for Used Vehicles in 2022

by

There is no doubt that autonomous driving is the future. Developments in the field have shown great potential. It will start with trucks and deliveries then move towards public use.

That is the future. Here and now, we are still stuck driving vehicles. And it’s not looking pretty by some measure, with 94 percent of road accidents caused by driver error. You don’t want to join the statistics but in case you did, you’d need good insurance to cover damages.

Whether you are a first-time car warranty buyer or a repeat one, these tips will help you get the best deal in 2022. [Read more…] about Find the Best Warranties for Used Vehicles in 2022

Using Robotics in Plastic Surgery

by

Often when we think of robotics, plastic surgery is not the first thing that comes to mind. In fact, if surgery even enters the picture, plastic surgery isn’t likely to be at the top of the list. However, robotics has changed how plastic surgery is performed.

We needed to understand better about how robotics is used in plastic surgery, so we consulted with a few plastic surgeons, such as plastic surgeon Dr. Asif Pirani. This is what we found out. [Read more…] about Using Robotics in Plastic Surgery

How Can We Buy Stocks Easily?

by

There are a number of ways to buy stocks, but the most common and easiest way is to do so through a broker.

A broker is simply an individual or firm that buys and sells securities on behalf of its clients. When you open an account with a broker, you will be able to buy and sell stocks through them.

If you are really interested in buying stocks then you can take help from automated trading, as it is one of the most favorite trading platforms of many well-known investors. [Read more…] about How Can We Buy Stocks Easily?

Can You Automate a Diaphragm Liquid Pump?

by

A diaphragm liquid pump can still be automated even if it doesn’t use electric motors to produce torque power and rotation to move or pump the fluids. It’s often employed to move flammable fluids that shouldn’t be exposed, such as chemicals, paint, or other substances.

Companies that need to pump flammable fluids often refrain from using electric motors because these motors might cause a spark to fluids, like petroleum fuel, gas, or other combustible chemicals. [Read more…] about Can You Automate a Diaphragm Liquid Pump?

Innovations in Dentistry: Navigational Surgery, Robotics, and Nanotechnology

by

We are going to start this article with imaginary scenery. So, please indulge us.

Reggie falls and loses two of his teeth. He soon finds it difficult to chew correctly and realizes he might visit the dentist for implants. Coincidentally, his grandmother had to get implants years ago. He remembers how they had to take multiple visits to the dentist and how long it took to fix her smile. Ultimately, Reggie gets discouraged and postpones his visit to the dentist.

This story typically depicts one of the drawbacks of traditional dental procedures, which has been corrected by technological advancements in dentistry over the years. Most dental experts today, like the dentist Steven Shapiro, DMD attests to the benefits of advanced technology such as nanotechnology and robotics in dental surgeries and procedures.

What Can You Learn from Software Testing?

by

Software Testing is a crucial element of any software development project and it should not be overlooked.

In this blog, I will detail some of the key takeaways from my research and practice as a software tester, in hopes of giving you some real insight into the benefits and pitfalls of software testing.

I don’t think the word “testing” accurately reflects what testers do. I prefer to use the word “assurance”. [Read more…] about What Can You Learn from Software Testing?
