…no matter how far off it was, and we'll gain that performance back.” Automated flexibility thanks to interchangeable EOAT Interchangeable end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) has provided Rethink’s new robot arms with operational flexibility that was lacking with its original robots. “Baxter and Sawyer had cameras embedded in the arms,” Harbert said. “There was an ease because it came with a camera. The challenge, of course, was that it wasn't always the right camera for what you wanted the robot to do. “The original Rethink had their own grippers that they designed and fabricated,” he added. “That's fine for some applications, but…

…With the rapid development of AI, quadruped robots will gain more powerful learning, sensing/perception, decision-making and planning abilities, according to DEEP Robotics. At the World Robot Conference, DEEP Robotics showcased the autonomous “dodging” skills of the X30, its flagship large-sized quadruped, for the first time. The robot can recognize/detect suddenly approaching humans and obstacles, autonomously avoiding/navigating them to prevent collisions. This makes interactions between the robot dog and humans safer, minimizes accidents during long-term operations, and improves the quality of long-term maintenance work. Fostering the robot-human interaction and reducing the need for manual control has always been important in robotic…

…expectations just yet. But, as the materials handling market gains more experience with automation, expectations will begin to fall in line with reality. “Many of our customers that have been at this for a long enough time, they have a really good understanding of what is and isn't possible,” Griffin said. Those customers work with Seegrid to choose the right applications, environments, and facilities to implement automation, knowing that not all processes can be automated. Many trucks doing many things at the same time Griffin said lots of customers start by trying to automate the hardest tasks in their workflows,…
