Cobots are designed to work safely alongside people, using sensors, vision, and force‑limiting to share tasks without cages—complementing, not replacing, traditional fast, fenced robots. They represented roughly a tenth of new industrial robot installs recently, with expectations of continued double‑digit growth as AI makes them more responsive and adaptable. What makes cobots different Common use … Read more
AI is turning robots from pre‑programmed machines into adaptable teammates—able to perceive, plan, and act safely in dynamic environments at the edge—unlocking new productivity and services across factories, farms, hospitals, and cities. Autonomy is moving from pilots to scaled deployment as human–machine collaboration becomes more natural and outcomes-focused. What’s different now High-impact use cases by … Read more
Manufacturing leaders are standardizing on a hybrid architecture: reliable, real‑time control at the edge and a multi‑tenant SaaS control plane for visibility, optimization, and continuous improvement across sites. Platforms ingest IIoT/PLC/SCADA data, unify it with MES/ERP/QMS, and power closed‑loop use cases—predictive quality, constraint‑aware scheduling, energy optimization, autonomous maintenance, and traceability—governed for security, sovereignty, and audit. … Read more
