Homanoid Robots - Applications and Influences on the Real World
Lets a take a look at humanoid robots, their types, and their real-world applications.
Humanoids have been assisting humankind in various capacities, widely leveraged in the domain of Healthcare, Education, and Entertainment, among others. As we have mentioned earlier that these robots are used for various purposes alongside research, their applications have commonly been categorized into healthcare, education, and social humanoid robots.
The benefits of robotics: Which industries are reaping the rewards?
Industrial robots are taking over. Well, they’re becoming much more common in the workplace. In fact, according to a report by the International Federation of Robotics, the number of robots in factories has almost doubled in recent years.
The 2021 World Robot Report shows that the global number of robots per 10,000 employees has risen from 66 to 126 between 2015–2020. So which sectors are reaping the rewards? Here, we’ll explore just this, shining a light on industries benefiting the most from robotics.
The Best Examples Of Human And Robot Collaboration
The future of work is not about humans being replaced by robots. Rather, it is about us learning to work alongside smart, automated technology that will augment our capabilities while allowing us to focus on skills that are uniquely humans.
We have been sharing our workplaces with robots for some time now – the earliest industrial robots were used in the mid-20th century, usually to carry out routine, manual assembly work on production lines. What makes today’s industrial robots different is that they are capable of carrying out work in a way that is truly autonomous, without needing direct control or input from us to tell them how to do it. This is because they are controlled by artificial intelligence (AI) – specifically software algorithms that use machine learning to enable them to continuously get better and better at their jobs.
AI experts establish the “North Star” for domestic robotics field
Robots that do everything from helping people get dressed in the morning to washing (and putting away) the dishes have been a dream for as long as people have uttered the words “artificial intelligence.” But, in a field where the state of the art currently rests far short of that level of sophistication, a fundamental challenge has emerged: Namely, what will “success” even look like, should the day come when robots are able to perform these key tasks to human standards?
AI-Guided Robots Are Ready to Sort Your Recycblables
Computer-vision systems use shapes, colors, and even labels to identify materials at superhuman speeds.
The truth about recycling in many parts of the United States and much of Europe is sobering. Tomorrow morning, the contents of the recycling bin will be dumped into a truck and taken to the recycling facility to be sorted. Most of the material will head off for processing and eventual use in new products. But a lot of it will end up in a landfill.
8 SKILLS THAT CAN’T BE REPLACED BY ROBOTS AND AUTOMATION
Here are the top 8 skills that robots and automation can’t replace.
Robots and automation will not eliminate employment, instead, they will modify them. While certain talents, such as dull and repetitive jobs like data entry, maybe mechanised, interpersonal skills cannot.
Robotics and 5G to spur growth of SoC industry – report
The system-on-chip (SoC) side of the semiconductor industry is poised for growth between now and 2026, when it’s predicted to be worth $6.85 billion, according to an analyst’s report.
Chances are good that there’s an SoC-powered device within arm’s reach of you: the tiny integrated circuits contain everything needed for a basic computer, leading to their proliferation in mobile, IoT and smart devices.
How to compete with robots by assessing job automation risks and resilient alternatives
Robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) are at the core of what is often referred to as the fourth industrial revolution (1). Sustained progress in these fields is leading to robots that are more autonomous, dexterous, and safer to interact with than their predecessors. Intelligent systems are also outperforming humans in tasks that once appeared out of reach for machines, such as the very complex board game of Go. Such advances—combined with equally important breakthroughs in high-performance computing, “Internet of Things,” and new materials—are already producing a visible effect on manufacturing and service sectors (2). As a result, a wide-sweeping transformation of the whole economic and productive system is expected over the next few decades.
Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Uncover Hidden Signatures of Parkinson’s Disease
Summary: Combining AI and robotics technology, researchers have identified new cellular characteristics of Parkinson’s disease in skin cell samples from patients.
A study published today in Nature Communications unveils a new platform for discovering cellular signatures of disease that integrates robotic systems for studying patient cells with artificial intelligence methods for image analysis.
Impact of AI and Robotics in the Healthcare Industry
AI and robotics have revolutionized the healthcare industry providing advanced solutions for treatments.
AI and Robotics are already working in several healthcare establishments. They’re carrying out tasks such as genetic testing, robotic surgery, cancer research, data collection, and more. Additionally, in the dermatology sector, AI is detecting skin cancer. The process of detecting skin cancer involves a technology, “MelaFind,” that uses infrared light to evaluate the skin condition. Afterward, with its sophisticated algorithms, AI evaluates the scanned data to determine skin cancer’s seriousness. AI and Robotics require more unveiling and continued experimentation to become an integral part of the industry and bring innovations through these emerging technologies.
Can delivery robots help us reduce our emissions?
ities worldwide are starting to use autonomous vehicles and delivery robots to lower transportation emissions. At the same time, climate change is one of the most pressing concerns facing the global community today with transportation playing a significant role in carbon emissions.

When Craig Rogers’ patients wake up after life-saving surgery to remove cancer cells in their prostate glands, they are left with a single, 3cm scar. By the end of the same day, many of them have been discharged and returned home.
TOP 10 MISTAKES ROBOTICS STARTUPS SHOULD AVOID IN 2022
Robots are taking over the world. They are now into every industry namely the healthcare industry, defense, education, and many others. It also now uses different technologies such as AI, ML, and many others to improve its functions and applications.
3 Key Differences Between AI And Robotics
Robots may replace about 800 million jobs globally in the future, making about 30% of all occupations irrelevant. Also, only 7% of businesses don’t use AI currently but are looking into it. Stats like these scramble people’s heads and make them believe that robots and AI are one and the same, which has never been the case. Instead, businesses and governments use robotics-based applications that can be described as a convergence of AI and robots.
China lays out five-year plan to be global robotics hub
