When we think about robotics development, we often imagine a logical and codified process. While we don’t assume it to be easy or straightforward, we do assume it to be relatively objective – the end goal is obvious, the milestones to reach it measurable.  The post...

In 2020, the world agricultural robotics market was worth $4.9 billion. It’s expected to grow to $11.9 billion by 2026, according to Markets and Markets. The post Are farmers ready for autonomous tractors? appeared first on The Robot Report.

The El Niño climate pattern, when it occurs, presents as warmer-than-usual water in the equatorial region of the Pacific Ocean. The changes in temperature and rainfall that ensue from this warmer water can affect natural disasters, crop yields and even the...

Microchips are everywhere, running computers and cars, and even helping people find lost pets. As microchips grow smaller, faster and capable of doing more things, the wires that conduct electricity to them must follow suit. But there’s a physical limit to how small...

Syslogic’s new AI Rugged Computer RPC RSL A3 E2 is designed to be suitable for implementing innovative agricultural applications. The device is based on the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier Industrial and is specifically designed for computer vision applications in...

The cobot uses six pneumatic direct drives, instead of the typical electric motors and mechanical transmission, to move. Each of the six drives consists of a circular chamber with a moveable partition. Differences in air pressure on either side of the partition wall...

Scientists at Brookhaven National Laboratory, Columbia University, the University of Connecticut, University of Edinburgh, Regensburg University, and the University of Southampton are seeking answers to physics mysteries at the highest energies and shortest distances....

While the HPC community is certainly aware of the shifting HPC technology landscape, it is worthwhile to occasionally take stock of how the overall changes are driving future architecture. Towards the end of last year, the National Science Foundation authored a paper...

A collaboration between Harvard University with scientists at QuEra Computing, MIT, University of Innsbruck and other institutions has demonstrated a breakthrough application of neutral-atom quantum processors to solve problems of practical use. The work led by...

As you browse the dozens of window displays on London’s Oxford Street, you’ll notice something unique in the window at Selfridges: an ABB robot 3D printing designer furniture, houseware and other objects. The post ABB robot 3D prints houseware in London storefront...

The first exoplanet detection happened only 30 years ago—but now, thanks to rapid advances in observation and data processing technologies, astronomers are working to not only detect exoplanets, but also to characterize them. This work—enabled by a supercomputer at...

More than 90 percent of plastic remains unrecycled, and as a result, billions of tons of plastic reside in landfills (or worse, in natural environments) around the world. This snowballing environmental disaster has caught the attention of researchers from a wide range...
