Under a new agreement, NASA will host supercomputing resources for the University of California, Berkeley, at the agency’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley. The agreement is part of an expanding partnership between Ames and UC Berkeley and will support the development of novel computing algorithms and software for a wide variety of scientific […]
Endiatx is shaping the future of medicine with groundbreaking micro-robotics inside the human body. The company’s flagship product, PillBot, is designed to wirelessly navigate the human stomach, lowering costs and increasing access to diagnosis and treatments. The post PillBot lets doctors see inside the human body appeared first on The Robot Report.
Robot SLAs have become more common to address issues related to diagnostics and maintenance. Unfortunately, many robot OEMs, resellers, and integrators simply don’t have the resources to offer SLAs to every customer. And even those who rely on SLAs can leave customers unsatisfied. The post Why SLAs aren’t enough to save the robot in the […]
Mobile robots have become an essential part of the automation landscape in recent years. For end users, they offer flexibility, scalability, and efficiency for various industries and applications. But what do customers actually want from mobile robots, and how do they evaluate and select different technologies and vendors? The post What do customers expect from […]
ASTM International said its F45 Robotics, Automation, and Autonomous Systems Committee is developing a standard for the evaluation of robots that clean solar panels. The organization said it will help modernize solar panel cleaning systems. Solar panel cleaning is a relatively new industry, with the oldest manufacturers of such technology being about 15 years old, […]
GPUs are often likened to the “gold” of artificial intelligence, vital to today’s generative AI age. This article aims to explain why AI is unachievable without GPUs. Let’s start with a simple processor task — displaying an image on the screen. The post Understanding the GPU —The Catalyst of the Current AI Revolution appeared first on HPCwire.
Agtech robotics and automation come in many forms. Pharm Robotics recognized the opportunity to automate a critical process for dairy farmers in the ongoing inoculation of their cows. The San Jacinto, Calif.-based company introduced its SureShot auto-inoculation system two years ago. The post Pharm Robotics inoculates dairy cows at large farm appeared first on The […]
Drosophila melanogaster, better known as the fruit fly, might seem like a run-of-the-mill pest. These insects, however, are critical for ongoing research into various neurological diseases at Texas Children’s Hospital. The post Texas Children’s Hospital transfers fruit flies with ABB YuMi cobot for neurological research appeared first on The Robot Report.
Lehigh University and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) researchers have developed an accelerating sparse accumulation (ASA) architecture, specialized hardware that enables faster computation on data sets that have a high number of zero values. Their work was first published in ACM Transactions on Architecture and Code Optimization and has led to a provisional patent. The post Berkeley […]
Robots working with humans to support a range of flexible applications has been a global trend. The cobot industry has grown as part of the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry. The post 7 cobots released so far in 2024 appeared first on The Robot Report.
