…groups for interoperability “There is also the potential of UGVs [unmanned ground vehicles] at the airport for handling luggage and then other robots inside for supplies or security,” von der Burg said. In addition, Meili Robots examined how modern robots can help reduce carbon footprints for environmental sustainability. Companies such as Meili Robotics, Freedom Robotics, and inOrbit are working to tackle the interoperability challenge, as are organizations such as the Robot Operations Group and working groups at the Association for Advancing Automation (A3), the Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing (ARM) Institute, and MassRobotics. Meili Robots said it is developing the next…

…systems (ASRS), autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), unmanned guided vehicles (UGVs), and other automation in mind. It claimed that the module “can enhance your on-the-move connectivity in the most challenging environments.” The Cardinal extends Wi-Fi range past the limitations of fixed infrastructure, with no line-of-sight requirements, using two transceivers that have combined data rate of 1.73 Gbps, said the company. Cardinal could enable 'lights-out' operations “Our latest industrial temperature IP40 dual radio BreadCrumb module is our smallest form factor to date focused on robotics that make Wi-Fi and LTE/5G better while enabling connectivity to billions of Wi-Fi IoT [Internet of Things]…

…from Future Acres. In addition, XAG's unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) works with its drones for precision agriculture. Last year, Iron Ox launched the Grover AMR for hydroponic farming. Mobile logistics robot uses to keep growing Mobile logistics robots can be used in environments that are dangerous to humans, such as nuclear remediation with high levels of radiation. RE2 Robotics has developed robots for these applications, as well as defense and other usage. Honda's Autonomous Work Vehicle has been tested in solar construction sites. Note that most outdoor systems are not as mature or fully autonomous as their supply chain cousins.…

…and resupply that use AMRs and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). “We have plenty of experience with the DoD [U.S. Department of Defense]; we're looking to expose ourselves to more commercial users, such as in utilities or logistics yards,” said Gordon. In addition, Lycas will lead a session entitled “Beyond the Warehouse: A Practical Approach to Taking Autonomy Off Road” on Tuesday, April 26, at 3:40 p.m. (EST) in Room S220B. Stratom will also show its Stratom Rapid system, which includes an autonomous ground vehicle refueling (AGVR) prototype and a robotic remote refueling point (AR3P) for aviation. It is a finalist…

…not sustainable,” she said. “The longer-term goal is for UGVs [unmanned ground vehicles] to gather data for crop metrics and to understand disease. With environmental sensors, there can be better use of resources, people, water, and pesticides.” Future Acres looks ahead Future Acres plans to conduct its first demonstration of its next-generation prototype at Sun World's International Center for Innovation during this year's harvest season. 'We're being realistic about the time needed to develop hardware,” Reddy said. “In October and November, we'll get a sense of the terrain, working with crews and grapes rather than sandbags at our lab.” “Next…

…end of the year—there's significant diversity among robots, including UGVs [unmanned ground vehicles], AMRs [autonomous mobile robots], and manufacturing arms.” BMW said it is using NVIDIA DGX AI systems and Jetson Isaac simulation technology to train and test its Smart Transport Robots for internal logistics. The automaker is also using NVIDIA Quadro ray-tracing GPUs to create synthetic machine parts for the training, plus robots built on the Isaac software development kit (SDK) and Jetson AGX Xavier and EGX edge computing. “The typical warehouse or hospital has a significant amount of dynamism. A robot can be trained in the physical world,…

…into their external delivery services with unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). What can restaurateurs expect in the coming year? Al-Beik: Restaurateurs will see an adoption of next-generation robotics that does not occupy the same space as humans to give customers and staff members more versatility. Moreover, retailers will focus on a single digital communication channel through their smartphones to best facilitate their customer needs, allowing in-the-moment and just-in-time operations. In this case, the restaurant becomes a pickup station or a dine-in experience where the same type of robotics system is doing the delivery. We will also…

…retailers to local businesses. Drones and unmanned ground vehicles (UGV) are showing up in last mile delivery. Amazon has been testing its Scout delivery robots to deliver packages and has planned to expand it on larger scale. FedEx collaborated with Pizza Hut to test FedEx’s SameDay Bot for pizza delivery. We can also see some similar trends related to delivery robots which are working towards last mile delivery issue and its solution. Driverless delivery start-up Nuro just got a $940 million in financing from Japan’s SoftBank Vision Fund and has partnered with Kroger to deliver the groceries and with Domino’s…
