Worker health and safety, higher project costs, labor shortages, and extended project timelines are top of mind for construction business owners.
In the not-so-distant past, people were the only laborers in a warehouse. Their jobs included everything from material transport and palletizing to performing repetitive tasks like moving and lifting heavy boxes on and off of racks. Now, thanks to autonomous mobile robots (AMR), warehouse operations can run more efficiently and laborers can spend more time on value-added tasks while mitigating repetitive injury risk.
Technology Company Creating Safety-and-Security Platform for Autonomous Machines Expects to Double in Size
Robotic technology is proving to be a game changer for many industries. Advances in artificial intelligence are enabling robots to perform some of the world’s dullest, dirtiest, and most dangerous jobs. For Atlanta-based startup Greenzie, autonomous lawn mowers may be the key to transforming the world of commercial lawn care– as long as they’re designed for safety.
Robots and other connected machines can pose challenges for safety and cybersecurity. These robotics security measures can help keep your system protected.
In this Ask the Expert video, FORT CTO Nathan Bivans explains why hardware-based security is essential to protecting machine systems against cyberattacks and bad actors.
FORT’s Nathan Bivans was a recent guest on The New Warehouse Podcast, discussing warehouse automation and industry trends with Martin McVicar of Combilift and host Kevin Lawton.
Robotic and autonomous systems can mean huge productivity gains for warehouses and factories, but only if they function safely. Yet it can be challenging to protect and maintain these machines while adhering to industry safety standards and, most importantly, ensuring the safety of everyone who works with them.
Functional safety is an important factor in the development of any machine. But for robots and autonomous systems, it’s especially critical. In this Ask the Expert video, FORT Robotics CTO Nathan Bivans explains what we mean by functional safety, and why it’s so important for robotic engineering and deployment.
