Robust.AI has selected Aptiv's PULSE sensor, which combines radar and vision technology with machine learning, for its Gen 3 Carter collaborative mobile robot designed for warehouse and manufacturing environments. The PULSE sensor is built to handle dynamic and challenging conditions such as dust, glare, moisture, and reflective surfaces that can degrade conventional perception systems. Carter uses software-defined functionality to automate tasks like order-fulfillment picking and transport without requiring additional infrastructure investments. Aptiv and Robust.AI are collaborating to pursue functional safety certification for the system, which is increasingly important as robots operate with greater autonomy near people and equipment.

The new Cobot Painter handles liquid paint and powder coating with no dedicated paint cell required. | Source: Hirebotics Hirebotics LLC today launched its Cobot Painter, an explosion-proof system built using its no-code Beacon platform and the FANUC CRX-10iA/L Paint hardware. The company said it offers metal fabricators and manufacturers a high-mix, low-volume alternative to manual spraying and complex automated lines. “The Cobot Painter eliminates the need for dedicated paint cells and c

The ARM Institute operates as a nonprofit organization, with the aim of being an honest broker between robotics and manufacturing stakeholders. | Source: ARM Institute The Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing, or ARM, Institute today issued an expanded version of the RoboticsCareer.org website with an increased emphasis on physical AI. With the release, the ARM Institute said it aims to demystify the skills and training needed to work alongside physical AI. RoboticsCareer.org now lists the growin

The new Mantis MR-X dual-arm fenceless robot. | Source: Mantis Robotics Mantis Robotics yesterday unveiled the MR-X, a biomimetic dual-arm robot designed to operate without safety fences or cages. The company said the system has embedded physical AI capabilities that enable it to operate alongside human workers. The MR-X builds on years of proven, certified fenceless operation, backed by major entities in automation, including Amazon. The MR-1, certified to ISO 10218 and ISO 13849, has already d
