…known as Cyberselves, BOW has demonstrated its software for teleoperation. Source: BOW Early users can give BOW feedback “We are getting ready to launch this system for all to use, but before then we are inviting a limited number of people to try out premium BOW SDK features, and share their applications with each other,” explained Camilleri. “Our mission is to lower the barriers to entry to robotics and encourage its widespread adoption with the dream of a robot in every home.” BOW said its SDK will enable developers to simplify using robots, including programming movement sequences. The SDK is…

…pairing of Motion Amplification technology with Spot's agility and teleoperation capabilities.” RDI provides sight beyond sight with Motion Amplification RDI Technologies said its proprietary Motion Ampilfication system drives intelligent vibration equipment, data analytics, robotics, and services. The platform allows users “to see and measure motion previously impossible to visualize by contacting sensors,” it claimed. The company said this allows reliability and test-and-measure programs to make faster, safer, and more informed decisions. With 200 years of industry experience, RDI Technologies said it helps clients in more than 60 countries and 40 industries gain greater speed to insight while reducing risk and…

…government, and manufacturing industries. The company provides remote control, teleoperation, and fully automated industrial vehicles and tests them at its 100-acre proving ground in northern Utah. ASI Logistics uses lidar, VAK to back up trucks ASI Logistics said it used its “robust” and “state-of-the-art” Vehicle Automation Kit (VAK) and SICK’s lidar sensors to overcome this challenge. Inside the VAK is the truck’s Vehicle Control Unit (VCU). The VCU commands all the truck’s functions when the truck is in autonomous mode. The VCU relies on quality data transmitted from sensors to autonomously reverse into trailers, said ASI. The company used two…

…earlier this week announced a partnership to develop a teleoperation platform to spur the commercialization of autonomous driving systems. In the framework of their partnership, Hyundai Mobis and Ottopia will work together to introduce an end-to-end remote mobility assistance solution where Ottopia provides all the core software technologies for teleoperation while Hyundai Mobis provides the hardware/software platform and system integration as a global Tier1. The companies said the remote assistance platform will be able to be scaled for a broad range of use cases to facilitate the rapid commercialization of autonomy in transportation, logistics, construction, mining, agriculture, and last-mile delivery.…

…generated by Kinova's arm. It also allows for easy teleoperation and remote configuration, Formant said. “Formant and Kinova share the same vision and enthusiasm regarding the next age in robotics,” said François Boucher, vice president of strategic growth at Boisbriand, Quebec-based Kinova. “Moving from individual automated cells in a manufacturing facility towards distributed networks of robots in hospitals, farms, and other atypical environments for robots requires solutions that are flexible and scalable,” he added. “Formant is definitely elevating the Gen3 robot in that regard, that’s the reason why we are so thrilled about this partnership.” Formant said more information is…

…the remote operator to take over versus where even teleoperation won't work, such as heavier snow. That's managed by local partners. Speaking of partners, when is teleoperation necessary? Vijay: For large fleet deployments at Level 4 autonomy, certain scenarios fall back to the teleoperation option. That safety net, and also maintenance and support in that particular geography, are where partners such as integrator Holo come in. We're looking for very competent partners that understand the domain and value proposition. It's good to have broad monitoring. If there are 100 robots at a particular location and one is asking for help,…

…built by Estonian technology company Clevon that combines remote teleoperation with advanced autopilot functionality. The first test runs of the CLEVON 1 vehicle took place in recent weeks on the parking lot of a distribution center in Londerzeel, Belgium. The delivery system took to public roads for the first time this week. It covered a 4 km (2.4 mi.) route from the distribution center to Collect&Go's pickup point in Londerzeel. This is the longest route for unmanned vehicle in Belgium to date, said the companies. “In this first phase, we mainly want to test the technology, study what the vehicle…

…This relies on the robot's autonomy and is not teleoperation, said SparkAI. The whole process should be resolved within a matter of moments, the company claimed. Bringing in humans to do what robots can't Building robots that have the flexibility to understand and adapt to changing work environments perfectly in every scenario continues to be an extremely hard challenge to solve, Michael Kohen, CEO and founder of SparkAI, told Robotics 24/7. AI models are not trained to understand the unpredictability of the real world, he added. “That dissonance can be confusing to AI, preventing companies from launching & scaling world-changing…
