Innovation roadmap for the report 'Automotive Radar 2022-2042'.

Grover is not your average farmer. It can lift more than 1,000 pounds and assists in the monitoring, watering, and harvesting of a wide variety of crops, from leafy greens to strawberries.

Researchers have developed a robotic device that provides an innovative motor and cognitive rehabilitation service that can be used at health centres as well as at home. The team has developed a platform made up of four elements: a robot that interacts with the patient, an artificial intelligence system that uses a 3D sensor to control the robot, an application that can be used by health care staff to set up and track sessions, and a cloud-based storage system which contains information and analytics from all of the rehabilitation processes.

ZMP was founded in 2001 in Japan as a company specialising in bipedal humanoid robots. In 2007 ZMP started developing autonomous moving technologies and implemented the outputs on their wheeled entertainment robotic products. In 2009, ZMP entered the field of autonomous driving (AD) by releasing their first AD development platform. ZMP is based in Tokyo, Japan, and it has a development centre in Vietnam as well as an affiliated company in Korea.

Farmdroid is a Danish start-up that was founded in 2018 specialising in agricultural robots.

Researchers have developed a magnetically powered human nuclear transfer stem cells-based microrobot and a method of minimally invasive delivery of therapeutic agents into the brain via the intranasal pathway. And they also accomplished transplanting the developed stem cell-based microrobot into brain tissue through the intranasal pathway that bypasses the blood-brain barrier.

Nano OPS is the world's first manufacturer of purely additive manufacturing tools capable of printing nanoscale features, bringing a nanomanufacturing fab in your lab.

Robotics & Automation is one of the UK's largest dedicated exhibition for robotics and automation. This premium article covers exhibitors specialised in industrial components for robotics, sensor, collaborative robotics and others.

The massive new challenges of desertification, rising sea levels, starvation, increasingly violent weather, dysfunctional national governments and the accelerating move to cities can be tackled on a human scale.

Prime Robotics, a mobile robot company in North America servicing the Warehouse, E-Commerce, Distribution and Manufacturing industries, is a spinoff from Bleum. Prime Robotics was founded in 2015, and provides automation solutions designed to accelerate supply chain logistics, delivering efficiency and cost savings for clients across North America. Since 2018, Prime Robotics has expanded rapidly. They moved their headquarters from Shenzhen, China to Denver, USA. Now they are a 40-employee company with a regional office in Shenzhen.

Chemotherapy successfully treats many forms of cancer, but the side effects can wreak havoc on the rest of the body. Delivering drugs directly to cancer cells could help reduce these unpleasant symptoms. Now, in a proof-of-concept study, researchers made fish-shaped microrobots that are guided with magnets to cancer cells, where a pH change triggers them to open their mouths and release their chemotherapy cargo.

F. Poulsen Engineering is a Danish company specialising in intra-row weed management with mechanical and thermal methods.

Korechi is a Canadian start-up developing agricultural robots/platforms with multi functionalities including seeding, weeding, and transporting goods.

Naio Technologies is a French start-up specializing in mechanical weeding robots. The company has three products (Oz, Dino, and Ted).

Swedish start-up company developing autonomous field robots for weed control using mechanical approaches.

Researchers have engineered a portable electronic nose that's almost as sharp as a human nose at sniffing out the stink of wastewater treatment plants. Coupled with a drone, the lightweight e-nose can measure the concentration of different smells, predict odor intensity, and produce a real-time odor map of the plant for management.

Thursday 18 November 2021 - Can Technology Innovation Awaken a Sleeping Giant? This webinar includes a summary of the key issues facing global agriculture; emerging applications of agricultural robotics; an overview of some of the key developments in the field; and much more.

Researchers have developed a new approach in which robotic exosuit assistance can be calibrated to an individual and adapt to a variety of real-world walking tasks in a matter of seconds. The bioinspired system uses ultrasound measurements of muscle dynamics to develop a personalized and activity-specific assistance profile for users of the exosuit.

Honda and Black & Veatch have successfully tested the prototype Honda Autonomous Work Vehicle. During the month-long field test, the second-generation prototype of the fully-electric Honda AWV performed a range of functions at a large-scale solar energy construction project, including towing activities and transporting construction materials, water, and other supplies to pre-set destinations within the work site.

Robotics & Automation is one of the UK's largest dedicated exhibition for robotics and automation. This event was held in Coventry, UK, in November 2021. This premium article covers exhibitors specialised in intralogistics automation solutions, including picking, packaging, material transporting and overall solution providers.
