As town of Paris sleeps, Spot is tough at work inspecting a few of RATP Group’s 35,000 civil works parts. The RATP Group (Autonomous Parisian Transportation Administration), is a French state-owned public transport operator and maintainer for the Greater Paris space. With hundreds of civil works to examine every year, the corporate has turned to cellular robotics to examine hard-to-reach and unsafe areas in an effort to preserve workers out of hurt’s approach.

Thanks, Renee!

Looks like Agility Robotics and the brand new Digit had a productive (and well-liked!) time at ProMat.

I nonetheless can not consider that this is smart. But it does?

Thanks, Madeline!

We demonstrated Stretch, our autonomous case dealing with robotic, automating trailer unloading at Promat 2023. From effectivity to ease of use, hear from our crew to find out how Stretch works, what’s new, and what’s coming subsequent for warehouse automation!

Here’s how Pickle’s box-unloading robotic has been doing.

Quite presumably probably the most damaging fight robotic ever designed has been revamped and is heading to RoboGames 2023.

Use the code “HardCore” for a reduction in your RoboGames tickets!

Is AI smarter than infants? Depends what you imply by smarter, in fact.

[ NSF ]

Someone can do that via a telepresence robotic and I can’t even do it in actual life, sigh.
