Attendees Invited to Vote on the Industry’s Top Innovations

A collaborative robot, 3D vision, and artificial intelligence make leak testing process more efficient.

DAEJEON, South Korea—Engineers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology have developed a way for robots to precisely grasp deformable objects and manipulate them.

As you read about the 20 nominees here, I think you will agree that they truly are innovative. Incredibly, they are just the tip of the iceberg.

WATERLOO, Ontario— The findings highlight a growing risk as hospitals, manufacturers, and other industries increasingly adopt remotely controlled robots.

Using data from a CAD file, a two-arm robotic system automatically places pins on a harness board and routes wires between them.

The system takes a CAD-style product specification and automatically generates a complete assembly plan, including factory layout, task assignments, collaborative payload transport, and collision-free navigation.

In this conversation with Colin Dowd, we delve into the topic of automation strategy for manufacturers.

ANN ARBOR, MI—The revised standard, which adopts and updates ISO 10218, introduces clearer functional safety requirements, integrated collaborative robot guidance, new rules for end-effectors and manual operations, updated robot classifications, and cybersecurity considerations.

BOSTON—Engineers at Boston Dynamics and Toyota Research Institute have achieved abreakthrough in artificial intelligence and robotics research.
