7 Latest Innovations in Robotics

Here are some of the latest robotics innovations and why there need to be skilled Mechatronics engineering technologists to help repair and maintain all of these great new robots.

Google's worker robots:

Google is planning to produce worker robots with personalities. Engineers will enable the machines to download personalities from a cloud-based system.

The robots have the capacity to store and display multiple personalities when interacting with humans.

with specific idiosyncrasies for each user—rather like a family computer having different accounts for each family member.

Multi-tasking Robots:

Momentum Machines have developed a multi-tasking bot particularly suited for “light assembly tasks and automated workbench scenarios” in a variety of industries.

It is capable of preparing a gourmet hamburger in as little as 10 seconds. If all goes well, the robot could eventually be used in fast food restaurants.

UR3 arm:

An automated device created by Universal Robots are known as UR3 can build its own replacement parts on the fly.

The cute and nimble robot can handle a variety of tasks, such as gluing, painting, soldering, and grasping.

The new table-top robot can also be used in a separate work station mounted on the table, picking, assembling and placing parts in optimized production flows.

Saul Robot:

The Saul Robot is designed to help fight deadly diseases like the Ebola virus.

Developed by Xenex, Saul eradicates traces of Ebola using powerful pulses of highly energetic ultraviolet rays. It breaks down and weakens cell walls of the virus.

After patient and operation rooms are cleaned, the robot uses pulses of high-intensity, high-energy ultraviolet rays 25,000 times brighter than fluorescent lights to split open bacterial cell walls and kill dangerous pathogens commonly found in hospitals.

Asus Zenbo:

Asus Zenbo is a low-cost robot capable of rolling around autonomously and understands verbal commands.

Asus developed the device to help individuals remember daily tasks, such as exercise and medication schedules as well as doctor's appointments.

Zenbo can also monitor the surroundings to detect any emergencies. It is capable of connecting to smart-home components like security cameras, lights, and door locks.

Paro:

Paro is a therapeutic robot developed by AIST, a leading Japanese Industrial Automation pioneer.allows the documented benefits of animal therapy to be administered to patients in environments such as hospitals and extended care facilities.

It has been proven effective when it comes motivating and assisting patients to relax.The psychological effects are drawn from the documented benefits of animal therapy.

It comes with five different sensors, including posture, light, tactile, audition, and temperature sensors.

Pepper:

Pepper is a talking humanoid robot that adapts its attitude based on how it perceives the mood of humans around it.The device detects emotional states like sadness, surprise, joy, and anger. It responds in a natural and appropriate fashion.

Pepper uses multi-directional microphones to detect sounds.At the heart of Pepper is a remarkable technology that analyses what you say, your tone of voice and nonverbal communication cues like the tilt of your head or posture.

From these, Pepper can instantly recognize the emotional context of the conversation and adjust accordingly. The result is human communication with the real emotional connection.
