…for advanced technology markets like drones, where companies and governments look to reduce uncertainty and costs through automation and AI. Where is uncrewed aerial system (UAS) use most mature—agriculture, construction, delivery, or infrastructure and utilities? Where does it need work, and why? Mozer: In commercial UAS markets, adoption of drones is increasingly driven by demonstrable ROI [return on investment] for customers. To that end, American Robotics is seeing UAS maturity in critical industries with high-value use cases, including oil and gas, bulk materials, and mining. Our customer base in these critical industries continues to grow as some of the largest…

…The Danish robotics cluster includes industry, investors, academia, and government supporters. Source: Blue Ocean Robotics A.P. Møller Holding supports Danish robotics cluster Although this is the first time that A.P. Møller Holding has chosen to invest in a robotics company, it can still be seen as something of a return to robotics. In the 1990s, shipowner Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller realised that automation was a necessity in the shipbuilding industry and therefore invested heavily in the research and development of robotics technology in Denmark. Over the years, A.P. Møller and the foundation Hustru Chastine Mc-Kinney Møllers Fond til almene Formaal has…

…In addition, Cogniteam said its involvement in the Israeli government’s Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) Consortium means that Nimbus will allow robots to better understand and anticipate human behavior while working in potentially hazardous human-robot environments. Cogniteam also partners with Rover Robotics Last month, Cogniteam said it was collaborating with robot hardware developer Rover Robotics Inc. to deploy its “low-code” platform on Rover's chassis. The stated goal was to save mobile robot developers from the “time-consuming and burdensome task of re-inventing existing technologies.” “By adding Nimbus to these platforms, Rover Robotics is remaining true to their mission of building off of proven…

…The IFR and other industry advocates asserted that business, government, and academia should make retraining and reshoring higher priorities. Robots to augment and recruit workers According to a study last year by Veo Robotics, 57% of manufacturers aren't worried about robots taking jobs but rather about finding ways to augment their existing workforces. “A people-centric approach to digital transformation ensures manufacturers have a workforce that is prepared to thrive alongside robots and automation,” wrote the National Association of Manufacturers in its “Top 8 Manufacturing Trends for 2023.” Several organizations have observed that not only can robots and automation help small…

…of the efforts in space exploration have come from governments. As of December 2022, only three economies have successfully executed manned space missions, and the U.S. is still the only country to have sent people who walked on the moon. The COVID-19 pandemic led to an unexpected reduction in the budgets allocated by many countries for space programs in 2021, but the reduction wasn’t very significant for any of them.
