Imagine a robot that can manage aquaculture projects, repair oil pipelines, and scan the seabed — all without risking human life. Nauticus Robotics' flagship robot, Aquanaut, meets these challenges while running solely on electric power.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					Funding will be used to expand globally, boost R&D in AI and robotics, scale manufacturing, and enhance predictive maintenance for the wind industry.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					Surveying and maintaining underground pipes can be complex and resource intensive. To streamline the process, construction and facility management teams are increasingly turning to robots that can provide inspection as well as repair.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					ALPHA is trained using real-time motion data collected from recycling operatives via VR headsets and the data is sent in real time to cloud servers. The data is then processed through IsaacLab and deployed to NVIDIA’s GR00T framework for real-time inference.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					Combining both wheeled and legged mobility capabilities, it is designed for demanding operational scenarios, driving intelligent upgrades across various applications including industrial inspection and emergency rescue operations.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					In this case study, we focus on the autonomous mobile robot (AMR), which can navigate and perform tasks in active environments without direct human control. Safe navigation and obstacle avoidance are fundamentally important for AMRs in the workplace.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					Successful pack assembly systems balance throughput, quality, and safety in real time. Integration matters more than buying the most sophisticated robots; it comes down to seamless software logic, modular failover paths, and smart system design.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					Understanding the nuances of RaaS agreements is key to maximizing its benefits. From implementation fees to site licensing and maintenance responsibilities, a well-structured contract ensures that both vendors and operators are aligned on expectations and obligations.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					Teams will leverage digital twin simulation as part of a novel approach for benchmarking AI’s ethical alignment with established ethics principles						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					From an operational standpoint, the role of robotics and automation in battery swapping is pivotal. Automated guided mechanisms handle each module, reducing labor costs and minimizing human error.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					As UGVs are increasingly deployed across a wide range of use cases—from defense and public safety missions to critical infrastructure inspection —their reliance on software, sensors, and connectivity makes them increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats and supply chain risks.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					Traditional wireless technologies like Wi-Fi, while great in consumer environments, often fall short of meeting the stringent requirements of industrial settings and specific factory automation applications and machine deployments.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					Designed to support a wide range of development environments, it provides open APIs and modular options, positioning it as a versatile research platform for AI and robotics software developers.						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					How industrial robots work constantly adapts to increased demand and novel technologies, but it enhances automation potential the most. What is shifting and how can production engineers and electronics experts in these sectors fully leverage the benefits?						
					
						
												
						
									
										
					VIVALDI Digital Solutions GmbH has developed an exemplary, innovative solution for AI quality inspection in real time. In addition to an edge server with an Intel processor, intelligent image processing plays a key role in the so-called SensorBox.
