Perks of Localization Strategies for Autonomous Robots

September 18, 2021 by Liv Leave a Comment

Self-localization for autonomous robots effectively bridges the gap between different phases of perception, cognition, and motion control.

Mobile robots are responsible for remarkable achievements in social science, medical science, agriculture, education, and space research in industrial manufacturing.

A LinkedIn insight by Daniëlle Rietberg, the marketing lead for Sweetesthome fueled significant expert contention. [Read more…] about Perks of Localization Strategies for Autonomous Robots

The Role of Collaborative Mobile Robots in Industry 4.0

February 1, 2021 by Polly Leave a Comment

Nowadays, the creation of workspaces in which humans and robots can work together, not only safely but in a more efficient and optimized way, is possible thanks to the called Connected Industry based on sharing all the information to get a better answer.

Inside the Industry 4.0, the use of mobile robots and mobile manipulators achieves the flexible and autonomous industrial automation necessary to create Smart Factories, where the greatest advantage is the exchange of information, which it is possible by the integration of the latest intelligent technologies in robotics, Internet, Artificial Intelligence or Big Data, and as a consequence, more efficient and optimal industrial processes will be created, with better use of resources, which means greater productivity in general.

The business case for autonomous mobile robots in manufacturing

February 1, 2021 by Liv Leave a Comment

  • First deployment of OTTO AMRs at scale at an F500 company demonstrates clear benefits in productivity, cost savings, and robustness.
  • Analysis reveals that a single AMR unit represents just 10% of the equivalent human labor cost, 20% of forklift operating costs, 50% of conveyor costs and 66% of AGV costs.

For a number of years now, Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) have been considered a promising technology for improving the resilience of manufacturing operations. [Read more…] about The business case for autonomous mobile robots in manufacturing

Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) used in logistics applications are forecast to enjoy massive growth in the next five years and grow ten-fold to exceed $3bn in 2022, according to a new report from Interact Analysis.

Despite the market being worth just $300m in 2017, the report forecasts that more than 400,000 mobile robots will be installed by the end of 2022.

Whilst AGVs have long been used in manufacturing environments to lower costs and improve efficiencies, logistics and fulfilment centers are a relatively new opportunity.

Panasonic has developed a 3D lidar – light detection and radar – sensor that it says accurately measures the direction of and distance to objects with a wide angle of view, which is critical for autonomous operation of mobile robots.

Employing Panasonic’s propriety laser-scanning technology, the 3D lidar is capable of scanning the laser as wide as up to 60 degrees vertically and 270 degrees horizontally to achieve stable operation of autonomous robots.

Sample shipments will start in January 2018, and Panasonic will exhibit the 3D lidar at Ceatec Japan event, from October 3 to 6, 2017.  [Read more…] about Panasonic develops 3D lidar sensor for autonomous mobile robots
