Automation is pushing the boundaries of technology to superior new levels. It is a growing phenomenon of human labor being replaced by robots and automated machinery. The latter do not get sick or slack off unless something needs fixing, can comparatively work faster than humans, and their on-job performance is always consistent, productive and free…
Manufacturers in almost every industry vertical that extensively uses machines are now focused on adopting consistent and seamless manufacturing practices. They are keeping close tabs on the machines, monitoring its functionality consistently, limiting downtime and consequently, eliminating activities that aren’t profitable. Simply put, the lynchpin of modern day manufacturing is all about increasing capacity to…
Getting rid of accumulating waste has become a major challenge for the society today, thereby affecting the safety and sustainability of the ecosystem. The current solution- garbage is either incinerated or stacked in different places, causing harm to the environment and the people. The traditional methods used to process waste not only increases the chances…
Over the years and across the world, Bluetooth technology has become synonymous with an accessible consumer wireless mechanism, that’s also low cost, easy to use and demands less resources to function effectively. In recent times, Bluetooth has also emerged as one of the most preferred technologies in the industrial automation space, replacing bulky wires and…
With the rapid growth of connected technologies, the industrial world is transforming in a trend that conforms to a number of headlined names including the fourth industrial revolution, smart manufacturing, and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). In the process as well as discrete industries, intelligent field machines have now become the norm, thanks to the…
From smartwatches that run a mobile operating systems, smart media players, smart cars that can park themselves and smart pills that can measure body temperature seamlessly, these days almost everything is being automated and connected to the internet. In this light, smart machine technology has ‘evolved’ to analyze, compute and reason, just like a human…
Home robots are gradually becoming a common addition to our households. From helping us out in the everyday mundane activities, household robots have now graduated to being an integral part of our daily lives. One great example of home robots is Kuri. Developed by Mayfield Robotics, Kuri is a self-driving domestic robot equipped with cameras…
Industrial robotics has emerged as a major part of the manufacturing industry. From being programmed easily to adapt to new production lines to producing defect-free products, the use of industrial robotics has gained immense popularity in the US. Unlike manual labor, these robots bring down the chances of product failure drastically. Also, they do not…
In our previous blogs in this series, we reviewed the overriding impact and varied applications of artificial intelligence in the US education sector, and the ever-growing agriculture industry. In this final series blog, we will set a spotlight on the applications of AI technology in the industrial sector. After decades of extravagant promises, artificial intelligence…
As the rise of automated machines and smart processing systems usher us into the fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0), the tasks being performed by robots on the production line are becoming more complex. Using vision guided robots (VGR) helps streamline the routine tasks performed by machines with high mobility in their movement without compromising precision and…
