Right now there are well over 200,000 industrial robots in use across the country. Robotics and automation have transformed the job market: from assembling products and welding to handling materials and painting cars. And it’s no wonder that robots are replacing positions with their ability to maximize output and remove the need for full-time employees. But […]
In Japan, robots are increasingly replacing human staff as the country struggles with a rapidly aging population. Robots can be seen working in hotels, insurance offices, and even nurseries. Of course, Japan isn’t the only nation experimenting with robotics technology. As we’ve said before, over 1.4 million new industrial robots will be working in factories globally by 2019. […]
The robots are starting to teach themselves. While that’s true, we’re not talking about the singularity. It’s something much more influential in our daily lives: self-reconfiguring modular robots. In short, these robots are able to adjust to real-life situations in real-time, without the guidance of a person. Do autonomous robots sound scary to you? Take a step […]
For decades, science has been obsessed with making technology smaller and more efficient. From phones to entertainment devices, we’re always looking to take the things we love with us. But what if it didn’t have to stop there? What if there was a technology so powerful and so small, that it operated at a microscopic level? […]
