Mobile robots are a core part of OMRON’s robotic catalog.At a hospital in Finland, such robots are used to transport small waste items within the hospital corridors. This application is part of an evaluation project to assess robots for healthcare logistics. The aim is to reduce the manual ...
The gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process is the same for robotic welding as it is for semiautomatic welding. Some of the practices outlined in welding codes can help to “control” the application of robots for the fabrication and manufacturing world. Examples include the setup and use of es...
“And if they could figure out how to program the robots to write human-interest stories and investigative reports, well, they’d do that too.” AddsThomas Kent– a journalism professor at Columbia University: “AI isn’t sentimental, and it isn’t ideological. “It can be used for good ...
McGillivray was surprised that his company could afford to purchaseUniversal Robots. "I assumed it was a six-figure-type deal to get into the type of robots," he said. But it turned out to be around $30,000 for "a robot that's easy to program and redeploy. That's...
This used to be true, but it isn’t true anymore. In the recent past, you could only program most robots with the default language provided by the manufacturer. Industrial robots usually mean using a version ofPascal. If you’re not too familiar with the Pascal programming language, this ...
A robots.txt file can be created in seconds. All you have to do is open up a text editor and save a blank file as robots.txt. Once you have added some rules to the file, save the file and upload it to the root of your domain i.e. www.yourwebsite.com/robots.txt. Please ...
This is a set of interactive online tutorials teaching the basics of using ROS (Robot Operating System) to develop and program robots. Open these tutorials in either MATLAB or MATLAB Online to learn more about ROS, and get hands-on experience interacting with robots powered by ROS....
Modern robots know how to sense their environment and respond to language, but what they don't know is often more important than what they do know. Teaching robots to ask for help is key to making them safer and more efficient.
Many of the jobs humans would like robots to perform, such as packing items in warehouses, or aiding soldiers on the front lines, aren’t yet possible because robots still don’t recognize and easily handle common objects. People generally have no trouble folding socks or picking up water gl...
At RoboDK, we want to make it as easy as possible for you to program any robot without having to master a different programming method for each new brand. OurRobot Librarycontains hundreds of different robots. You can program them all using the same method, without ever having to learn the...
