Relay Robotics calls for creation of SAE-style autonomy levels for indoor robots

November 28, 2024 by Mark Allinson

Relay Robotics – a provider of indoor robots mainly used in hotels and hospitals to deliver small items – is calling for the creation of a framework for indoor robots similar to that for autonomous road cars.

The SAE – short for Society of Automotive Engineers – released a guidance in 2014 which defined levels of autonomy in automotive vehicles from 0 to 5, and this has become the standard reference for the automotive industry.

Now, in a detailed article, two robotics experts at Relay Robotics – Sonali Deshpande, senior navigation engineer, and Jim Slater, robot systems architect – have outlined a set of definitions which the company hopes will help the wider industry develop such a framework for indoor robots.

Why Automation Should be Part of Your Digital Signage Strategy

April 27, 2022 by David Edwards

Automation is not a futuristic word, it is just another way of ensuring your digital signs take as little effort as possible. It can work in several different ways.

For example, you could have a live feed of information that displays information based on whatever program is running. You could have the sort of automation that tells people when their next appointment is due or when their next bus is due.

Even things like having your content run on a schedule is considered automation, and it too should be part of your digital signage strategy. [Read more…] about Why Automation Should be Part of Your Digital Signage Strategy
