Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are increasingly being used in a variety of industries to automate material handling and transportation tasks. These technologies are capable of moving materials, goods, and products around a facility without the need for human intervention. AGVs are automated vehicles that follow a predetermined path using various…
In 2022, Elephant Robotics launched many new products and projects, including myPalletizer, mechArm, and myBuddy, etc. This year, we have also received many projects with our robotic arms from users. Here are the excellent application cases we select to share. Photographic lighting [1] Building an excellent lighting configuration is very important for the photographer, which…
A new ROI calculator from OMRON has been launched to support the process of evaluating an investment in collaborative and mobile robots, including easy and affordable leasing opportunities that are ideal for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). OMRON’s ROI calculator gives companies who are considering investing in collaborative or mobile robots a quick and easy…
Enhance your development efficiency with myBuddy, the world’s first Dual-arm collaborative robot for education In July, Elephant Robotics released myBuddy, a dual-arm collaborative robot with multiple functions, at an incredible price. myBuddy helps users achieve more applications and developments as a collaborative robotic arm. “myBuddy is the most cost-effective dual-arm robot for scientific research and…
Autonomous robots are expected to perform a wide range of sophisticated tasks in complex, unknown environments. However, available onboard computing capabilities and algorithms represent a considerable obstacle to reaching higher levels of autonomy, especially as robots get smaller and the end of Moore’s law approaches. Here, we argue that inspiration from insect intelligence is a…
Researchers have developed a technique that enables a robot to learn a new pick-and-place task with only a handful of human demonstrations. With e-commerce orders pouring in, a warehouse robot picks mugs off a shelf and places them into boxes for shipping. Everything is humming along, until the warehouse processes a change and the robot…
Scientists and engineers are developing a new generation of simulation tools accurate enough to develop and test robots virtually. Building and fine-tuning robotic systems takes lots of time. This is especially true for robots designed to interact within and manipulate an ever-changing array of objects in Amazon facilities. Developing robotic systems in a virtual environment…
Joystick-operated robot could help surgeons treat stroke remotely. The system could provide teleoperated endovascular treatment to patients during the critical time window after a stroke begins. MIT engineers have developed a telerobotic system to help surgeons quickly and remotely treat patients experiencing a stroke or aneurysm. With a modified joystick, surgeons in one hospital may…
Robots are mechanical devices initiated by input agents such as sensing devices or converters and guided to operate by computer control circuits. The description of a robot may appear complicated, but the operation of the device is not. Robots, like people, receive information from their sensory systems, process them in their brains, and then carry…
