Robots are dumb. They can only do what they’re told, over and over again. Without a sense of sight, they can’t know if parts or pallets are where they’re supposed to be. Without a sense of touch, they can’t know if they’ve picked up a part or if the assembly has gone together correctly. Technologies such as machine vision and force sensing have helped in this regard, but robots are still not as adept as people for complex tasks, such as assembling 3D mechatronic items. Now, new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and large language models in particular, are promising to give robots human-like ability to manipulate objects.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

• Limitations of current robotic technology for product assembly.
• How new technologies could give robots more autonomy in manufacturing applications.
• The role of artificial intelligence in robotic assembly.
• Future applications for robots in assembly.
