Mujin develops and sells “intelligent robot controllers,” designated as a common platform for industrial robots. Even though conventional automation is suitable for repetitive work, it was difficult to install in environments where products and the surroundings are liable to change. This was due to the robots’ operations differing by the manufacturer and the complex settings. Mujin, which has offices in the U.S., Japan, and China, said it has solved this problem using motion-planning technology. It provides robotics systems so factories and warehouses can automate heavy or simple work that previously had to be done manually.

…of its fully autonomous robotic taxicab service in Shenzhen, China. The company was among the first to get permission from municipal authorities in China and California for ride-hailing operations without safety drivers. Most testing of self-driving cars to date has included safety drivers, who can take the steering wheel in the case of an intervention to deal with unexpected road conditions, unpredictable human drivers, or pedestrians and cyclists. As progress gradually continues toward SAE Level 5 autonomous vehicles, including trucks, safety drivers are starting to be phased out in favor of remote monitoring and intervention. However, significant challenges remain, including…
