Operations in high-end equipment manufacturing often involve confined spaces, complex objects, and fine manipulation tasks that demand sustained and stable precision. At the recent 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference and High-Level Meeting on Global AI Governance (WAIC 2026), Shanghai Electric showcased its comprehensive portfolio of embodied intelligence solutions tailored to a range of industrial scenarios. […]

Automation and robotics have always been about combining reliable hardware with increasingly capable software. Over the last few years, the software half of that equation has shifted decisively toward artificial intelligence. Vision systems that read labels and detect defects, natural-language interfaces that let operators query a line in plain English, predictive models that flag a […]

Reimagine Robotics, an AI robotics company founded by former leaders of Google DeepMind’s Applied Robotics team, has emerged from stealth with new technology that allows robots to learn on the job. The company is developing intelligent robots that anyone can train and use. Instead of requiring specialist programmers whenever a task or production process changes, […]

Neura Robotics has partnered with RWTH Aachen University to establish a new Neura Gym in Germany as part of its expanding global network of Physical AI training centres. The new facility, known as Neura Gym RWTH Aachen, is scheduled to open by the end of 2026 at the university’s Hightech Campus Melaten. It will form […]

Commissioning a robotic production cell requires coordinated testing across robot controls, drives, safety functions, field devices, and plant networks. A robotic cell can run cleanly during a shop demonstration and still lose hours when it reaches the plant. The robot may be ready while a drive uses the wrong parameter set. A sensor can change […]

Sapphire Technology has unveiled the EDGE+ Apex SOM/Carrier Robotics Platform, a production-ready hardware platform powered by AMD Ryzen AI Embedded X100 Series processors and designed to accelerate the development and deployment of physical AI in autonomous robotics. The platform has been showcased at AMD Advancing AI 2026 in San Francisco. Built for rugged, always-on robotics […]

Robots no longer stop at the edge of the factory floor. Increasingly, they extend into a phone or tablet in an operator’s hand. A companion app has become as important as the hardware it controls. Fleet managers check machine health from a warehouse aisle. Maintenance technicians pull diagnostics before they even reach the unit. Operations […]

New technology is changing the face of factories. All companies are seeking to reduce cycle time, lower costs, and guarantee quality. Automation is assisting factories to accomplish their tasks in a superior manner. A helpful technology is industrial robots and laser cleaning systems. This mix can be used to automatically remove burrs from metal components […]

Indian robotics startup Strider Robotics says it has successfully demonstrated what it describes as one of the country’s highest-payload quadruped robots, capable of carrying a 40 kg payload while maintaining stability across challenging terrain. The Bengaluru-based company is now moving from prototype development to commercial deployment, with field pilots under way with a major oil […]

Mondo Robotics, a robotics company creating accessible robots for the consumer, has launched its first robot, Beni, on Kickstarter. Beni is the first portable, all-terrain robot that independently films while following you around, auto-capturing life’s little moments with cinema-grade camera movement. Having to set up equipment like tripods or asking someone else to take a […]

Lumos Robotics says its Prime R0 industrial embodied AI model has achieved the highest overall score on the latest MolmoSpaces leaderboard, outperforming larger models from competitors including Nvidia and research teams from the United States. The Chinese robotics company said its 2.8-billion-parameter model ranked first across both single-arm fine manipulation and dual-arm collaboration tasks in […]

Tesollo, a South Korean robotic hand specialist, has officially begun preparations for its initial public offering through Korea’s technology-special listing track. Tesollo appointed KB Securities as its lead underwriter in March and is currently preparing for a planned listing after 2027. The company also announced that it has recently completed its Series B funding round. […]

Ency Software and Stäubli Robotics have signed a global agreement to “make robot programming more intuitive, faster, and more accessible”. The collaboration brings together Stäubli’s high-performance industrial robots and Ency Robot, Ency Software’s CAD/CAM-based solution for offline robot programming, simulation, and trajectory generation. The agreement focuses on a key challenge in advanced automation: turning complex […]

Event marked milestone for Narragansett Bay Campus The University of Rhode Island celebrated a major milestone in the $300 million, multi-phase revitalization of the Narragansett Bay Campus with an underwater ribbon cutting ceremony for the new Ocean Robotics Laboratory on June 25. Students Elliot Roman and Jake Bonney piloted URI’s remotely operated vehicle Rhody to […]

The rapid growth of embodied artificial intelligence is reshaping the robotics industry, with companies racing to develop machines capable of performing a wide variety of real-world tasks rather than being programmed for a single application. Among the companies attracting significant attention is Shenzhen-based X Square Robot, which recently completed four consecutive financing rounds culminating in […]

SVT Robotics, a leader in interoperability software that provides the data foundation for enterprise and physical AI, has announced that its Softbot Platform has surpassed four billion transactions, underscoring the scale, resilience, and performance of the infrastructure it delivers worldwide. With transaction volumes now totaling 100 million to 130 million per week and accelerating, SVT […]

Kawasaki Robotics showcased a range of advanced automation technologies at Automate 2026 in Chicago, demonstrating how robotics, AI, machine learning, vision systems, and real-time control are transforming industrial automation. Among the highlights were the debut of the new “RL030N” 8 Degree of Freedom (DoF) robot platform designed for Physical AI applications, Kawasaki Robotics’ patented Pulseboard […]

New findings from Hexagon’s global Robot Generation study show that both adults and children are open to robots at work, but are setting clear terms for where and how they should be used. Asked whether they would prefer a human or a robot to handle specific workplace tasks, adults consistently chose robots for physical, repetitive, […]

STEM education has experienced rapid growth in recent years, driven by increasing demand for practical engineering skills, artificial intelligence literacy, and interdisciplinary innovation. However, for schools, universities, and research laboratories, building effective robotics environments has long remained a challenge. In many cases, instructors must integrate robotic arms, mobile platforms, sensors, and open-source software from multiple […]
