Mishima Kosan partners with Ready Robotics to implement ForgeOS for simulation testing on the Nvidia Isaac Sim

by

Mishima Kosan, a diversified company with a strong presence in steel production, product manufacturing, and engineering services, has formed a strategic partnership with Ready Robotics, a pioneer in no-code software for industrial automation.

Through this collaboration, Mishima Kosan will deploy Ready Robotics’ ForgeOS, an innovative low-code/no-code platform that enables users to easily program and control robots and automation devices, in conjunction with Nvidia Isaac Sim, an extensible robotics simulation platform that gives users a faster way to design, test, and train AI-based robots.

By partnering with Ready Robotics, Mishima Kosan aims to enhance its automation capabilities with simulation and provide even more advanced solutions to its clients across various industries, including steel works, chemical plants, auto glass, and building materials factories.

IDS offers its industrial camera users free update to its new deep learning method

IDS Imaging Development Systems is offering an update for the AI system IDS NXT: Cameras can now also detect anomalies

In quality assurance, it is often necessary to reliably detect deviations from the norm. Industrial cameras have a key role in this, capturing images of products and analysing them for defects.

If the error cases are not known in advance or are too diverse, however, rule-based image processing reaches its limits. By contrast, this challenge can be reliably solved with the AI method Anomaly Detection.

The new, free IDS NXT 3.0 software update from IDS Imaging Development Systems makes the method available to all users of the AI vision system with immediate effect. [Read more…] about IDS offers its industrial camera users free update to its new deep learning method

Advanced technology adoption will make Indian roads ‘accident-proof’

by

A relatively new company called Hi Tech Robotic Systemz (THRSL) says India’s Union Minister Nitin Gadkari’s vision for Indian roads will make vehicles “accident-proof”.

In a recent meeting of the National Road Safety Council (NRSC), the minister advocated for fixed driving hours for commercial truck drivers like that of pilots, as well as a policy mandating on-board sleep detection sensors in commercial vehicles to reduce road accidents in India and give relief to truck drivers.

The logistics sector, which is a key enabler and the backbone of any growing economy, is primarily dependent on drivers who operate for long hours in tough working conditions. [Read more…] about Advanced technology adoption will make Indian roads ‘accident-proof’
