BIRMINGHAM, Mich. — As National Robotics Week highlights the rapid evolution of automation, manufacturers are beginning to deploy a new generation of intelligent robotic systems capable of adapting to real-world production environments. Robotics is no longer defined by motion alone. The next phase of automation is being driven by intelligence — systems that can perceive, decide and adapt in real time on the factory floor.

Greg Dyer, Chief Commercial Officer at Randstad USA, shares what the current labor market looks like for manufacturers, why reshoring is creating new workforce pressures and how companies can rethink recruiting to meet today's hiring challenges.

BIRMINGHAM, Mich. — Jeff Bezos is reportedly in early discussions to raise a $100 billion investment fund aimed at applying artificial intelligence across manufacturing, targeting sectors such as semiconductors, aerospace and defense.

ITZEHOE, Germany—Engineers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Silicon Technology recently developed a system that enables close collaboration between humans and robots.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A new hands-on event in Kansas City will bring manufacturers together with AI developers to focus on applying artificial intelligence to real production and operational challenges.

This approach can be used to predict the mechanism of self-loosening of bolted joints without additional tests, and it is possible to make predictions with very low error rates using AI, which promises to reduce the costs associated with testing new bolted joint designs.

Blake Maurer of Loopr AI discusses how manufacturers can improve quality inspection by combining human expertise with AI-enabled visual inspection systems.

PALO ALTO, Calif. — Mind Robotics announced plans to develop and deploy AI-enabled robotic systems designed to automate complex manufacturing tasks that traditional industrial robots cannot perform.

This conversation with Bill Good, Vice President of Manufacturing and Supply Chain at GE Appliances, explores what it takes to scale advanced manufacturing in the United States — and why speed, talent and technology must evolve together.

MUNICH, Germany — Misplaced glasses on the kitchen counter or a phone left somewhere in the living room could soon be found by a robot. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich have developed a system that locates lost objects by combining 3D vision with language-based artificial intelligence.
