Helping robots ‘see’ by using advanced AI and video in manufacturing

January 11, 2022 by Mai Tao Leave a Comment

Not long ago, a world inhabited by robots was merely a sci-fi storyline.

Today, robots have become part and parcel of many manufacturing lines. We’ve become used to seeing them assemble, pick and pack, and zip down warehouses looking for the latest item for delivery.

They have become indispensable to many organizations and individuals, where many work hand-in-hand with human colleagues. Now, they are being given the ability to see and are using video technology to be even more efficient. [Read more…] about Helping robots ‘see’ by using advanced AI and video in manufacturing

The Software in the HealthCare

January 7, 2021 by Polly Leave a Comment

From the labs across the world to the pharmacy in your local area, and finally, to your cabinet, the process of getting the right kind of medicine into your hands is an intricate one where the pharmacy plays a critical role.

There are several procedures, methods, and tasks that need to be followed by pharmacies in order to ensure that medicine is accounted for and delivered in the right place at the right time.

As one of the most important elements of healthcare, medicinal supply, organization, and delivery needs to be as efficient as possible in order to give patients the correct kind. [Read more…] about The Software in the HealthCare

Delivering Content Like Never Before

January 7, 2021 by Polly Leave a Comment

When you’re watching a movie on Netflix, skipping between one webpage to another, downloading an image, or accessing a cloud storage server, you’re getting some form of content.

The way this information is delivered to you actually involves an intricate and complex process that ensures that you’re getting the right content quickly.

Obtaining and assessing vital information has never been quicker or more efficient, and this is in large part thanks to the emergence of content delivery networks, which are a network of servers and data centres that work in tandem with each other in order to deliver a faster connection to users.

Motional and Via partner to launch platform for public, on-demand shared robotaxi rides

November 5, 2020 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Motional, a driverless technology developer, and Via, a public mobility solutions provider, have agreed a partnership that they say will “serve as a blueprint for the future of on-demand, shared robotaxis”.

Motional and Via seek to use learnings from the partnership to inform how driverless vehicles can be integrated into mass transit networks, and optimized for pooled rides.

The partnership’s first service – shared robotaxi rides, available to the public – is expected to launch in one of Motional’s existing US markets in the first half of 2021. The initial launch market will be announced at a later date. [Read more…] about Motional and Via partner to launch platform for public, on-demand shared robotaxi rides

ForwardX Aiming to Deliver ‘Best-in-Class’ Autonomous Mobile Robots

January 30, 2020 by Mai Tao Leave a Comment

By Nic Temple, Vice President of Sales for the Americas at ForwardX Robotics

Given the proliferation of warehouses, distribution centers, direct to consumer (D2C) business models, fleets of AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots), questioning the validity of innovation is worthy of examination.

Unlike in prior years when attendees would walk the show floor for days, many are using the MHI MODEX app and visiting for just a single day.

For that reason, a compelling innovation from ForwardX (Booth 1207) should be the first stop for serious AMR decision-makers. [Read more…] about ForwardX Aiming to Deliver ‘Best-in-Class’ Autonomous Mobile Robots
