Why is Competition Good for Business?

January 27, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

When you start a business, there are a million things you need to think about. Even if that number seems like an exaggeration, the truth is that there are certainly more things you need to think about than in most other careers.

After all, if you work for someone else, it’s them who will be doing all the worrying and planning, and you’ll just have to do the work you’re given to do. When you’re the boss, you have to take on a number of different responsibilities.

One of those responsibilities is to understand your competitors more. You need to know who they are, what they do, and how they do it, and you need to know how all of that will impact your own business. [Read more…] about Why is Competition Good for Business?

2023 Predictions & Forecasts: European countries expected to be worst affected by automation

January 22, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

When it comes to the workplace, developments in automation mean that the future landscape of work is changing and, in turn, the roles that we undertake. 

While many people fear that this contributes to a decrease in employment, many industries continue to grow and adapt despite automation.

In some instances this can improve work-life balance, allowing manual workers to work normal shifts and robots to work overnight or to remove the menial tasks from your role and retrain to complete tasks that cannot be automated.

GreyOrange launches GreyMatter open API to manage variety of robotic systems

January 20, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

GreyOrange, a provider of automated robotic fulfillment and inventory optimization software, has launched its GreyMatter open API (application programming interface). 

The API enables any vendor’s robotic solution to seamlessly connect to the GreyMatter fulfillment orchestration platform, giving customers the freedom to choose the technology that fits their warehouse environment.

Under the API, GreyMatter can now orchestrate autonomous mobile robots (AMR) and other execution agents from companies that have joined the GreyOrange Certified Ranger Network (CRN) ecosystem. [Read more…] about GreyOrange launches GreyMatter open API to manage variety of robotic systems

5 Rules for Giving the Best Constructive Feedback to Your Employees

January 18, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

With current attention focused on its flaws and general fallacies, feedback is sometimes seen as a feared and challenging corporate need.

However, despite being a difficult subject, feedback has the ability to alter (for better or worse) the culture, growth, and productivity of any business.

This essay will define feedback, explain how it affects motivation, and establish the groundwork for learning how to give and accept criticism that is both truly helpful and honest. [Read more…] about 5 Rules for Giving the Best Constructive Feedback to Your Employees

Halodi Robotics uses Ansys to simulate humanoid robots

January 10, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Halodi Robotics is using Ansys simulation software through the Ansys Startup Program to develop its humanoid robots designed to work among humans in everyday environments.

Humanoid robots can help alleviate the growing labour shortage, and free critical personnel to focus on tasks that require their high-level skills.

These robots will perform jobs such as patrolling buildings at night, stocking grocery shelves, and executing logistical tasks at hospitals. With Elite Channel Partner EDRMedeso, Ansys enabled Halodi Robotics to shorten development time by months. [Read more…] about Halodi Robotics uses Ansys to simulate humanoid robots

Ways Automation Changed the Way People Invest

December 26, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

There are two ways to make money. You can exchange your time and expertise for a salary. Alternatively, you can buy an asset or create a system that will make you money even while you’re away.

Having a job that pays you a fixed salary is great. But creating passive income is where you want to invest more energy. In this guide, we’ll show you how to leverage automation to make passive income conveniently. Let’s dive right in. [Read more…] about Ways Automation Changed the Way People Invest

Getting your warehouse holiday-ready: How technology can help you ride the tide during the busiest time of the year

December 19, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

By Pieter Feenstra is the CEO of Addverb Technologies’ EMEA region

The holiday season is right around the corner and hype is in the air. With customers in their deal-hunting mode getting ready to score the best deals, and businesses offering competitive discounts for limited periods to trigger a sense of urgency, it sure is the busiest time of the year.

Customers are starting their holiday shopping earlier than usual this year to spread their spending across more paychecks to minimise financial strain.

This also means that those who facilitate the smooth running of operations during this peak season are under considerable pressure to meet growing demands, largely propelled by e-commerce sales.

Reinforcing the value of simulation: Teaching dexterity to a real robot hand

December 8, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Nvidia researchers show how training in simulation enables the transfer of complex manipulation skills to a robot hand with project DeXtreme

The human hand is one of the most remarkable outcomes of millions of years of evolution. The ability to pick up all sorts of objects and use them as tools is a crucial differentiator allowing us to shape the world around us.

For robots to work in the everyday human world, the ability to deftly interact with our tools and the environment around them is critical. Without that capability, they will continue to be useful only in specialized domains such as factories or warehouses.

While it has been possible to teach robots with legs how to walk for some time, robots with hands have generally proven to be much trickier to control. A hand with fingers has more joints, and they must move in specific coordinated ways to accomplish a given task.

Micropsi Industries’ AI software now compatible with Fanuc robots

December 3, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Micropsi Industries says its artificial intelligence-based software MirAI is now compatible with numerous robots produced by Fanuc, the world’s largest supplier of robotics and factory automation.

With MirAI, Fanuc customers can now add valuable hand-eye coordination to multiple Fanuc industrial and collaborative robots (cobots) to handle difficult-to-automate functions such as cable plugging and assembly.

Using AI, the MirAI controller generates robot movements directly and in real-time. Robot skills are trained, not programmed, in a few days through human demonstration, without requiring knowledge of programming or AI.
