Collaborative robot market to reach $7.2B by 2030, predicts ABI Research
Despite a lack of growth in 2023 and 2024, the latest report from ABI Research predicted that revenue from collaborative robots will increase from $970 million in 2023 to $7.2 billion by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate, or CAGR, of 28%. The research firm said...
Automatic gripper changes can add flexibility in manufacturing
Production manufacturing demands are increasingly diverse, so adaptability and efficiency are essential, according to Hakan Aydogdu, CEO of Tezmaksan Robot Technologies. Automatic gripper changes provide a practical solution for CNC machines to transition seamlessly...
New MIT tech helps drones fly in dark using millimeter waves
In the future, autonomous drones could be used to shuttle inventory between large warehouses. A drone might fly into a semi-dark structure the size of several football fields, zipping along hundreds of identical aisles before docking at the precise spot where its...
10 surgical robotics companies to watch in 2025
Intuitive Surgical Inc. remains the leading surgical robotics provider — but other companies with savvy strategies are generating buzz and raising money. Surgical robotics experts agree that the most promising technologies provide robot-assisted surgery options that...
Dusty Water: A Look Inside Liquid Cooling
This past year at SC24, there was a marked increase in liquid cooling companies. The term “liquid cooling” describes moving system heat through water rather than air. Moving water is much more complicated than moving ambient air but can hold much more heat by volume...
What Are Reasoning Models and Why You Should Care
The meteoric rise of DeepSeek R-1 has put the spotlight on an emerging type of AI model called a reasoning model. As generative AI applications move beyond conversational interfaces, reasoning models are likely to grow in capability and use, which is why they should...
