Cyngn and Columbia Vehicle Group to begin building fleet of autonomous industrial vehicles

January 19, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Cyngn and Columbia Vehicle Group have started the production of autonomous Columbia Stockchaser vehicles powered by Cyngn’s Enterprise Autonomy Suite.

Cyngn is a developer of innovative autonomous driving software solutions for industrial and commercial enterprises, while Columbia Vehicle Group is an electric vehicle manufacturer serving industrial and commercial environments.

This growing autonomous vehicle fleet will enable Cyngn to make its self-driving solutions on Columbia vehicles available to more customers. [Read more…] about Cyngn and Columbia Vehicle Group to begin building fleet of autonomous industrial vehicles

Cyngn partners with Columbia Vehicle Group to develop autonomous mobility

December 30, 2021 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Cyngn, a developer of innovative autonomous driving solutions for industrial and commercial enterprises, has agreed a partnership with Columbia Vehicle Group.

The partnership marks a key milestone in Cyngn’s ongoing effort to bring scalable, secure, and reliable autonomous vehicle technologies to industrial applications.

Cyngn’s autonomous vehicle capabilities are powered by DriveMod, an end-to-end solution that can be integrated with Columbia vehicles. DriveMod enables vehicles to switch easily between manual, remotely-controlled, and fully autonomous modes.

Engineers at Columbia University invent robotic lasers that cook food

December 16, 2021 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Engineers at Columbia University have invented software-controlled robotic lasers that cook food with “unparalleled precision”, retaining more moisture, and creating an entirely new, customized way to cook a tasty meal. (See videos below.)

Imagine having your own digital personal chef; ready to cook up whatever you want; able to tailor the shape, texture, and flavor just for you; and it’s all at the push of a button. Columbia engineers have been working on doing just that, using lasers for cooking and 3D printing technology for assembling foods.

Under the guidance of Mechanical Engineering Professor Hod Lipson, the “Digital Food” team of his Creative Machines Lab has been building a fully autonomous digital personal chef. Lipson’s group has been developing 3D-printed foods since 2007. Since then, food printing has progressed to multi-ingredient prints and has been explored by researchers and a few commercial companies.

Columbia develops ‘robotic trunk support assists’ for people with spinal cord injuries

January 7, 2020 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Engineers at Columbia university have invented a robotic trunk-support-trainer to retrain patients with spinal cord injury to sit more stably and gain an expanded active sitting workspace. (See video below.)

Spinal cord injuries (SCI) can cause devastating damage, including loss of mobility and sensation. Every year, there are an estimated 17,000 new SCIs in the US alone, a rate higher than in most regions of the world.

In addition, the rate of SCIs in people 65 years or older is expected to rise in the US, from 13 percent in 2010 to 16.1 percent by 2020. [Read more…] about Columbia develops ‘robotic trunk support assists’ for people with spinal cord injuries

Columbia university develops robotic neck brace that ‘dramatically improves’ movement

August 13, 2019 by David Edwards

Columbia university has developed a robotic neck brace that it says “dramatically improves functions in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients. (See video below.)

The brace incorporates both sensors and actuators to “restore roughly 70 percent of the active range of motion”.

The novel neck brace, which supports the neck during its natural motion, was designed by Columbia university engineers. [Read more…] about Columbia university develops robotic neck brace that ‘dramatically improves’ movement

Columbia university demonstrates robotic cane to ‘improve stability in walking’

August 8, 2019 by David Edwards

Columbia University has demonstrated a robotic cane which it claims can “improve stability in walking”.

The developers say the device acts as a cane-like mobile assistant to provide “light-touch” operation to help the elderly and others with impaired mobility.

By adding electronics and computation technology to a simple cane that has been around since ancient times, a team of researchers at Columbia Engineering have transformed it into a 21st-century robotic device that can provide light-touch assistance in walking to the aged and others with impaired mobility.
