Sonair’s 3D ultrasonic sensor uses acoustic detection and ranging (ADAR) to enable 360° obstacle detection up to 5 meters. Each ADAR sensor offers a 180×180° field of view, allowing autonomous mobile ...

As robots increasingly enter human spaces, robotics companies will need to think about safety differently than they did when robots were largely siloed from their human counterparts. Sonair thinks its ...

Researchers have developed PanoRadar, a new tool to give robots superhuman vision by transforming simple radio waves into detailed, 3D views of the environment. In the race to develop robust ...

Stereo camera use case with autonomous mobile robots. Source: OTTO and Gideon Brothers. 3D sensors are a fundamental technology for measuring depth perception. These sensors can be found in several ...

One of the first real-world applications of IoT (Internet of Things) technologies that provided tangible benefits to manufacturers of all sizes involved optimizing equipment maintenance via the ...

As the boundaries between robots and collaborative robots (cobots) fade, the need for fast, agile and uncaged robot systems grows rapidly. Today’s cobots typically rely on power- and force-limiting ...

The world’s first full-size purely-electric running robot, Tiangong from China, has gone open source. The move aims to boost secondary development and speed up the robots' integration into daily life.

It may resemble a human, but Fourier Intelligence’s GR-1 robot has six eyes instead of two — the robotics company recently updated its humanoid robot with six cameras that give it a full 360-degree ...

Soft skin coverings and touch sensors have emerged as a promising feature for robots that are both safer and more intuitive for human interaction, but they are expensive and difficult to make. A ...
