Robots are getting smarter and more sophisticated. They also need to get safer
By Jenny Shern, general manager at NexCOBOT, part of Nexcom
Robot installations worldwide have more than doubled in the past decade – and deployments are no longer contained to the manufacturing line.
A growing wave of players are racing to develop advanced robots and humanoids with sophisticated capabilities in a variety of dynamic environments, from retail stores and hotel lobbies to eldercare facilities and bustling warehouses
For instance, Amazon’s newest collaborative robot, Vulcan, is equipped with tactile sensing that enables it to pick, sort, and stow objects with the finesse of a human hand. [Read more…] about Robots are getting smarter and more sophisticated. They also need to get safer
From spreadsheets to industrial machinery: Overwhelming numbers of workers say AI saves time on tasks
Approximately 90 percent of surveyed workers say AI helps them save time on work tasks – yet many businesses still underestimate how far intelligent automation has progressed in routine workflows.
The challenge: While over 80 percent of companies plan to implement AI-powered tools this year, many still invest hours in processes that modern AI systems now enhance faster, more accurately, and at greater scale.

A guide to the revolution in digital healthcare: 3 key areas
The healthcare sector is changing as a result of increasing device integration, intelligent automation and the internet of things.
From remote monitoring to smart sensors and medical device integration, healthcare IoT has the potential to not only keep patients safe and healthy, but radically transform the way physicians deliver care as well.
In fact, the IoT healthcare market is expected to reach $136.8 billion worldwide by 2021.
With that in mind, the presentation below outlines three key areas of IoT application within healthcare.
The growth of robotic process automation in life sciences and pharma
In partnership with Intelligent Automation in Life Science
Robotic process automation, sometimes called “intelligent automation”, simply put, refers to the use of software to perform routine or repetitive tasks.
An overly simple example might be setting up an auto-response on your email account for when you’re not around to answer a sender’s email yourself.
But that really is a gross over-simplification compared to what RPA can do. In theory, any task currently completed by a human could be done with RPA. [Read more…] about The growth of robotic process automation in life sciences and pharma
