Ready Robotics to install its operating system into Kawasaki industrial robots

April 16, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Ready Robotics, creators of Forge/OS, the industrial operating system for robots and automation, is partnering with Kawasaki Robotics to bring Ready’s Forge/OS software to Kawasaki’s robot hardware.

Kawasaki is a leading supplier of industrial robots and automation technology, with robot payloads ranging from 3 to 1,500 kg. With over 50 years of experience and thousands of robots installed worldwide, Kawasaki is an automation partner you can trust.

Ready supports Kawasaki’s R series robots, with capacities from 3 kg to 80 kg. Support for more models will be added in future updates. Forge/OS adds another level of ease-of-use to Kawasaki robots with a user interface that is simple to learn, program, and manage.

Swiss university shows brain-computer interface for controlling robots

February 2, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

A Swiss university called the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne has showcased a new brain-computer interface that can be used to control robots. (See video below.)

Unlike previous BCI’s famously demonstrated to former US president, Barack Obama, the EPFL brain-computer interface does not require a hole to be drilled in the user’s head.

Two EPFL research groups teamed up to develop a machine-learning program that can be connected to a human brain and used to command a robot. [Read more…] about Swiss university shows brain-computer interface for controlling robots

Stäubli launches new software to enable robot programming through PLCs

January 30, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Stäubli has launched uniVAL pi, a software solution that will enable robot programming to be implemented in the future via the PLC, using Plug & Play in Siemens TIA Portal.

A PLC, or programmable logic controller, is a type of small computer or device used to control machines in factories.

Stäubli’s new software is optionally an available communication interface, with which users can program Stäubli robots without manufacturer-specific, high-level language knowledge in their familiar environment – safely, quickly and efficiently, says the company.

MIPI introduces new networking tech that doubles mobile data transfer rate to 23 gigabits per second

December 15, 2021 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

The MIPI Alliance, an international organization that develops interface specifications for mobile and mobile-influenced industries, has unveiled a major update to its MIPI M-PHY physical-layer interface for connecting the latest generation of flash memory-based storage and other high data rate applications in advanced 5G smartphones, wearables, PCs, industrial IoT, and automobiles. 

Version 5.0 of the M-PHY interface adds a fifth gear – “High Speed Gear 5” (HS-G5) at 23.32 Gigabits per second (Gbps) – enabling engineers to double the potential data rate per lane compared with the previous specification.

Cleveland Clinic develops bionic arm that restores ‘natural behaviors’

September 2, 2021 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Cleveland Clinic researchers have engineered a “first-of-its-kind bionic arm” for patients with upper-limb amputations that allows wearers to think, behave and function like a person without an amputation, according to new findings published in Science Robotics.

The Cleveland Clinic-led international research team developed the bionic system that combines three important functions – intuitive motor control, touch and grip kinesthesia, the intuitive feeling of opening and closing the hand.

Collaborators included University of Alberta and University of New Brunswick. [Read more…] about Cleveland Clinic develops bionic arm that restores ‘natural behaviors’

Collaborative robotics market set to grow to $8 billion by 2030

May 26, 2021 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

bmw worker with collaborative robot

Despite the challenges facing the wider manufacturing industry during the coronavirus pandemic, collaborative robots continue to attract attention and investment, due to their ease of use, redeployability, and convenience to end-users who struggle to afford more traditional forms of automation.

According to a new report from global tech market advisory firm ABI Research, the cobot market is set to grow substantially over the coming decade.

The market had a global valuation of $475 million in 2020, which will expand to $600 million in 2021 and $8 billion in 2030, with a projected annual growth of 32.5 percent. [Read more…] about Collaborative robotics market set to grow to $8 billion by 2030

UX/UI Design in the Promotion of Mobile Apps

May 24, 2021 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Most users don’t even think about how to make the work algorithm of mobile applications easy and comfortable to use.

Every action that is done by pressing on a certain part of the screen and all of the subsequent processes are maintained by User Experience (UX). User Interface (UI) is capable of making the design look nice and satisfying for most inquiries.

Why do these 2 operational elements play a significant role in development and are they “must-have” of it? [Read more…] about UX/UI Design in the Promotion of Mobile Apps

UI/UX trends for 2021

May 6, 2021 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

The best apps have a user interface (UI) that is unique and yet somehow familiar; intuitive and at the same time, alluring.

From the very moment a user starts the app launcher, through the overall course of using it, they should feel like they get reacquainted with an old friend.

The user understands what to do and how to behave while being excited to discover new depths of functionality. [Read more…] about UI/UX trends for 2021

Universal Robots develops interface for Siemens engineering portal

March 30, 2021 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Universal Robots, the world’s largest collaborative robots manufacturer, has developed an interface for the engineering portal of Siemens, one of the world’s largest industrial technology companies.

The companies say that integrating Universal Robots’ collaborative robots into complex machines and manufacturing environments will soon be a process machine builders and systems integrators can “seamlessly handle” through the Siemens Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) portal.

The UR collaborative robots will become part of the Simatic Robot Library within Siemens’ TIA environment through an interpreter interface planned to be completed within the fourth quarter of 2021. [Read more…] about Universal Robots develops interface for Siemens engineering portal
