MHP study proves it: Wireless charging increases productivity of AGVs by 50%
The aim of the MHP study was to demonstrate the advantages of process-integrated charging points using inductive point charging systems such as Wiferion over conventional charging zones using a real-life optimization scenario in a medium-sized production company.
Making Pittsburgh a Leading Hub for Robotics and AI
With two Tier 1 research institutions, CMU and the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt), Pittsburgh is uniquely suited to provide the skilled and talented workers necessary for companies looking to launch, scale and grow in a place that provides a soft landing.
AI & Autonomous Solutions in Agriculture
Our autonomous systems have completed over 50,000 operational hours across 150,000 acres in the US. By operating tractors precisely and remotely, we also are seeing improvements in worker safety, and exposure to hazardous materials and chemicals.
2D cameras for positioning and inspecting ultra-fine wires in semiconductor production
Wire bonding is a key process in semiconductor production. Extremely fine wires with diameters of 15 to 75 micrometers are used to create tiny electrical connections between a semiconductor chip and other components.
ZF Pick and place
ZF, a global technology company from Germany, uses the MIRAI AI-vision software to automate a challenging pick-and-place task.

IMTS 2024 Product Preview
IMTS 2024 takes place September 9th - 14th in Chicago, Illinois. The Exhibit hall floor will be loaded with new products and services. Here is a preview of some things to look forward to at this years event.
How Parvalux Is Helping to Develop the Next Generation of Conveyor Systems
Conveyor systems are central to most warehouse operations, and without regular maintenance, downtime can prevent a warehouse from functioning which obviously has a large financial impact.
What is an RPA Audit, and How Do you Know If You Need One?
When your company starts its automation journey, you don't need to spend big up front. It's risky, and you still don't know what you don't know. So go for a project that will bring rapid ROI and get a win under your belt.
The Warehouse of the Future: Where Sci-Fi Meets Supply Chain
Technology may not be able to solve all the problems, but it should impact warehouse operations, as did the advent of modern pallets around 1917 and the lift truck, which eventually became the forklift.
Robots speeding up material handling
With omnidirectional movement and smart docking with virtually any warehouse cart in under 20 seconds, these new robots are making material handling faster and safer.
Master-Follower Configuration: Precision Control with Encoder-Based VFD Synchronization
VFDs are the backbone of modern and legacy industrial systems, managing tasks from powering fans and compressors to enabling intricate robotic operations. For more complex industrial operations, the need for precise coordination between drives escalates.
Overview of GMSL2 Technology in Automotive Camera Systems
GMSL2 comprises sets of serializer and deserializers (SerDes) ICs. It can provide multi-stream support with a single cable. This interface addresses the needs of high bandwidth, complex interconnect, data integrity, and low power requirements.
Picking the right chart - (Semi-)Autonomous surface and underwater mapping for rivers and lakes
On the camera side, the Fraunhofer Institute relies on two uEye FA industrial cameras from IDS. The robust and resilient models with PoE are ideal for demanding environments.
Interoperability, the VDA5050 Standard and MiR's approach
The VDA5050 standard is one of the industry's attempts to address this challenge by standardizing communication between multiple different robot types from various suppliers using a common control system.
