Where Innovation Meets Imagination
Mobile Industrial Robots showcased its autonomous mobile robot solutions at the recent China International Industry Fair.
Making its public debut was the MiR1000 robot, which can carry heavy loads and pallets weighing up to 1 ton.
Thomas Visti, CEO of MiR, says: “This is our second time participating in CIIF, so it’s a great opportunity to showcase our MiR1000 robot, one of the industry’s largest autonomous mobile robots to date. [Read more…] about MiR showcases its mobile robots at CIIF 2019
Two years ago, Kaveh Hamed saw his son Nikaan take his first steps on his own. He watched Nikaan’s one-year-old body teeter on wobbly legs as the baby walked forward.
And he saw Nikaan’s progress: he went from crawling on his belly to standing with a sway, to the first walks, to taking off across the floor on two sure feet.
These memories make Hamed think about math, as he does when he watches his dog Telli run. When he sees her bound toward him and switch to a trot, he starts to wonder again about the ways he might impart her agility to a robot.

Have you ever had a great idea for an invention but given up because you had no idea what to do next?
Well, if so, don’t worry because you are one of many people who have done the same thing.
This does mean that lots of great ideas have gone to waste unnecessarily, as there is support and help out there for new inventors such as the support from InventHelp. [Read more…] about Key Ways in Which InventHelp Can Assist New Inventors
Delta Electronics has held a groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of its new building in the “Automotive Campus” in Helmond, the Netherlands.

Wing Aviation, an Alphabet company, is collaborating with FedEx and pharmaceuticals retailer Walgreens to launch a first-of-its-kind drone delivery service in Christiansburg, Virginia next month.
The pilot program will demonstrate the many benefits of drone delivery to communities by exploring methods to enhance last-mile delivery service, improve access to health care products, and create a new avenue of growth for local businesses.
Drone delivery in the United States has historically been limited to small-scale demonstrations on designated test sites, or extremely short flights along pre-planned, fixed routes – all within the visual line of sight of the drone operator.

Fortunately, it can benefit your corporation or development team in many ways. Read this post to learn the main reasons to use a Docker registry for enterprise applications. [Read more…] about 5 Reasons To Use A Docker Registry For Enterprise Applications
IMHX is one of the largest trade shows aimed at the intralogistics sector in the UK. Held in Birmingham, the event features more than 450 exhibitors and attracts more than 16,000 industry experts over its four-day duration, from September 24th to 27th.
As with the other events Robotics and Automation News has covered over the past year or two, IMHX is seeing an increasing number of robotics and automation solutions sharing the stage with technologies that have been established for a lot longer.
Longer-established technologies can be said to be the ones that brought about “mechanised” automation, which has become more sophisticated over time, integrating electronics and computer technologies into it. [Read more…] about IMHX provides platform for more robotics and automation technologies
