A new category of sensing technology transforms mobile robot vision from 2D to 3D, improves safety performance and provides 50-80% cost savings compared to traditional, LiDAR-based systems and sensor ...

This sensor integrates two core technologies: a 3D acoustic perception technology that estimates the 3D positions of humans or objects even in noisy environments, and a sound wave-based dual ...

As the boundaries between robots and collaborative robots (cobots) fade, the need for fast, agile and uncaged robot systems grows rapidly. Today’s cobots typically rely on power- and force-limiting ...

Flexible piezoelectric sensors are essential to monitor the motions of both humans and humanoid robots. However, existing designs are either are costly or have limited sensitivity. In a recent study, ...

Sonair’s 3D ultrasonic sensor uses acoustic detection and ranging (ADAR) to enable 360° obstacle detection up to 5 meters. Each ADAR sensor offers a 180×180° field of view, allowing autonomous mobile ...

Nature, the master engineer, is coming to our rescue again. Inspired by scorpions, scientists have created new pressure sensors that are both highly sensitive and able to work across a wide variety of ...
