…efficient way. We also supports the open-source community including ROS and ROS 2—we want the robotics world to grow faster and provide more meaningful applications outside of safety cages.” Louisville, Colo.-based AMP Robotics, whose Neuron AI platform applies computer vision for more efficient recycling, discussed how NVIDIA products are enabling practical robotics at scale. “We really pushed the envelope—our system can train on over a billion types of garbage and recyclables and run on the network in real time,” said Jason Calaiaro, co-founder and head of engineering at AMP Robotics. “The end-to-end workflow from NVIDIA can train the neural network.…

…of affordable mobile manipulation,” added Walker. “We both have ROS-native systems and can merge behaviors and the user experience. We'll be able to reduce size and cost as we integrate further.” “Manufacturers are the 'first movers' with precise machine tending,” he said. “The robot is able to fit into situations where workers already have a process. It can reach into a machine or collect parts for a tray or sampling without a huge apparatus. With our mobile manipulator, you can have it pull a batch or sample in the way it's already done.” “It's also surprising how many companies want…

…Developer Studio with support for the Robot Operating System (ROS) in Windows 10, Linux, and the Azure Web services. The software company has been focusing on industry-specific cloud/edge computing, including Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare. Its projects for intelligent robotics include “responsible conversational AI.” Burlington, Mass.-based Nuance Communications said its conversational AI and “ambient intelligence” are used by 77% of U.S. hospitals and 85% of Fortune 100 companies worldwide. The company's products include Dragon Ambient eXperience, Dragon Medical One, and PowerScribe One for radiology reporting. All of these clinical speech-recognition products are built on Microsoft Azure and offered through a software-as-a-service…

…Blair, vice president of marketing for Berkshire Grey. The ROS can contribute to the overall flow. For instance, if the robot was unable to pick an item, the WES can route a tote to another station staffed by an associate to complete the pick, or, if the required item was missing from the tote, someone in replenishment can address the issue. “That way, instead of the tote just sitting there, you’ve automated the resolution process so the robot can keep working,” says Vince Martinelli, RightHand’s head of product marketing. Similarly, the robot can pick items in a sequence that will…

…simulation and deployment of algorithms for planning and navigation. ROS Toolbox is also for design, simulation and deployment but is specific to the Robot Operating System (ROS). This new toolbox gives engineers an interface between MATLAB, Simulink and ROS and ROS2, for generating embedded system software for ROS nodes. Among the MATLAB highlights in R2019b is the introduction of Live Editor Tasks. This helps users interactively explore parameters, preprocess data and generate MATLAB code that will become part of a live script. This means MATLAB users can focus on the task instead of the syntax or complex code, and they…
