If you work in robotics, odds are you’re more interested in robots than data pipelines and cloud architecture.
Unfortunately, the latter are just as much a part of modern robotics as sensors and servo motors. If you hope to successfully develop and scale your robotics operations, you’ll first have to run the gauntlet that is building a cloud-based “backend” – the server side of the network.
Given the inherent complexity of this task, there are plenty of opportunities for oversight. So, before all else, it’s imperative that you and your team take the time to carefully consider and develop a plan of action. [Read more…] about 10 key considerations when developing your robot’s cloud backend
By Serena Brischetto, marketing and communications manager at SEMI Europe
In the future, electronics-related gear including advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) will account for a whopping 50 percent of automotive costs.
More importantly, with more control of vehicles shifting to automation, the margin of error in component performance and reliability will become vanishingly small as zero defects become the new safety standard.
SEMI’s Serena Brischetto spoke with Antoine Amade, senior regional director EMEA, Entegris about zero defects as a “new collaborative approach” (see video below) necessary to shape the car of the future and the automotive industry.

New Scale Robotics says its NSR-PG-10-20-URe Gripper/Caliper and NSR-MTM-3-URe Multi-Tool Mount have received UR+ Certification from Universal Robots.
With this certification, UR confirms that it has tested and approved the products to work with UR e-Series collaborative robots to provide fast deployment, simple programming and reliable operation.
The NSR-PG-10-20-URe Gripper/Caliper is the smallest parallel gripper and the first robotic digital caliper for collaborative robots. [Read more…] about New Scale Robotics earns UR+ certification for its components
While it was once considered an advanced technology of the future, artificial intelligence is very much a present-day reality.
Thanks to inventions like self-driving cars, home assistant devices, automatic vacuum cleaners and remote home security solutions, Artificial Intelligence is on everyone’s lips.
Since AI seems to affect both the public and private sector, we started thinking about all the different ways in which it’ll shake up the real estate world. [Read more…] about Artificial intelligence in the real estate industry
