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.
FORT Robotics is featured in ForConstructionPros.com’s article on the benefits of autonomous and remote control construction equipment. Author Curt Bennink explores how advances in remote control and autonomous technologies promise to create a paradigm shift for the industry. The piece features interviews with FORT, Caterpillar, Bobcat, and Built Robotics and discusses the advantages of working from outside the cab as well as key safety considerations for remote control construction operations.
As the world continues to adjust to the challenges posed by COVID-19, robots are playing an increasingly important role in getting goods to the people who need them.
