Robotics and Health and Safety

October 12, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

One of the areas where robotics can make a real difference is in the health and safety world.

Although robotics have their own health and safety challenges, there is o denying that they can and are being used to change the face of health and safety in many workplaces around the world.

When used in conjunction with existing measures like key clamp fittings and hazmat suits, for example, which is why anyone who is interested in improving their health and safety record should be looking at robotics as a solution. [Read more…] about Robotics and Health and Safety

How Can Robots Help to Improve Efficiency in Logistics Operations?

April 29, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

This is a big question for the logistics industry, is it possible to improve efficiency with robotics in the logistics industry?

Well, the answer to this question is not simple because logistics is different from other industries, and unlike other industries, it is not always clear how robots can offer their services in the logistics process.

But we are seeing an increase in the number of robots being used in the logistics industry which means that after all, robots can offer their services in this industry. [Read more…] about How Can Robots Help to Improve Efficiency in Logistics Operations?

4 Ways Robotics and AI Are Transforming Design and Creatives

March 10, 2020 by Polly Leave a Comment

While AI and robotics have made waves in several industries, it would seem inconceivable to the uninitiated for robots and intelligent machines to make a mark in the creatives sector. How could systems be taught creativity?

In fact, when researchers from the Oxford Martin School ranked 702 occupations according to their susceptibility to computerization, jobs that center around creativity were least in danger.

Designers, curators, artists, choreographers, dancers, musicians, singers, writers, and authors were among those less likely to be replaced by robots. [Read more…] about 4 Ways Robotics and AI Are Transforming Design and Creatives
