…robots harming people or other equipment. The shift from 5G to mesh networks There is a common view that 5G will forge the way for wireless connectivity in the years to come. While the applications for home use and other well-contained locations may make this viable, the same cannot be said for large or cavernous workplaces. They include open fields, underground mines, or warehouses. Using 5G in warehouses is like transmitting Morse code. Much like the way Morse code sends out a signal in dots and dashes in a direction, 5G sends a singular message in one direction as well.…

…They can call for an elevator via Wi-Fi or 5G LTE, select a floor, and then exiting the elevator upon reaching its destination. Using machine vision, a robot can determine if an elevator has enough room or if it's too full to accommodate the robot. The interface also informs the elevator system when to open the doors and adjust door dwell timing to ensure the smoothest journey possible for the robot. The robotics interface can also be used for other purposes, including housekeeping and security, said TK Elevator. In addition, three of the service cars are designed to be remotely…
