Bota Methods AG can be exhibiting off its complete vary of force-torque sensors, together with its newest sensor particularly designed for bigger collaborative robots, at RoboBusiness subsequent week in Santa Clara, Calif. The corporate can be exhibiting in Sales space 613 on the present ground. 

Zurich-based Bota Methods focuses on cutting-edge sensors for robots and cobots. The firm stated its sensors are designed for humanoid, industrial, and medical robots — enhancing features in fields akin to welding and minimally invasive surgical procedures.

Drive-torque sensors may give robots a way of contact, enabling them to precisely and reliably carry out duties which had been beforehand solely attainable with guide operators, stated Bota Methods.

“At RoboBusiness, we are going to showcase our newest developments in force-torque sensing know-how,” Klajd Lika, CEO of Bota Methods, informed The Robotic Report. “Developments in AI and machine studying promise to simplify robotic programming, doubtlessly growing adoption even amongst customers with out robotics backgrounds, although challenges stay.”

“Robotics knowledge, primarily from sensors measuring movement, is proscribed,” he added. “By capturing knowledge that provides us details about the dynamic state of the robots, akin to inside and exterior forces and tactile knowledge, we are able to improve coaching and inference effectivity.”

“We look ahead to discussing how our know-how can be shaping the way forward for robotics and why it’s the ‘native language’ of robots that’s hiding limitless potential, at this 12 months’s occasion,” stated Lika.

See progressive sensors firsthand

RoboBusiness attendees may have a possibility to see Bota Methods’ newest SensONE T80 force-torque sensor. It’s the newest within the firm’s SensONE line of light-weight six-axis pressure torque sensors for collaborative robots.

“This sensor is engineered to cowl excessive sensitivity on the complete payload vary of huge cobots, providing new potentialities for high-demand purposes akin to heavy palletizing and welding,” stated Martin Wermelinger, head of robotics at Bota Methods. “We look ahead to demonstrating the way it will drive better precision and effectivity in these and different complicated duties.”

Bota Methods stated its SensONE sensors allow human-machine interplay and might present pressure, imaginative and prescient, and inertia knowledge. They can be utilized in quite a lot of industrial purposes, together with rehabilitation with robotic programs, precision meeting, product testing, sharpening and grinding, and robotic-assisted surgical procedure. 

Meet with Bota Methods and extra at RoboBusiness

Along with notion and different enabling applied sciences, RoboBusiness will give attention to robotics innovation, and enterprise and funding subjects associated to operating a robotics firm. Keynotes on the occasion will characteristic:

• Rodney Brooks, co-founder and chief know-how officer at Sturdy AI, in addition to co-founder of iRobot and Rethink Robotics
• Sergey Levine, co-founder of Bodily Intelligence and an affiliate professor at UC Berkeley
• Claire Delaunay, chief know-how officer at farm-ng
• Torrey Smith, co-founder and CEO of Endiatx
• A panel on driving robotics innovation with ABB, DHL, NVIDIA, and Teradyne

RoboBusiness will embody greater than 70 audio system, over 100 exhibitors and demos on the expo ground, 10+ hours of devoted networking time, the Pitchfire Robotics Startup Competitors, a Ladies in Robotics Luncheon, and extra.

RoboBusiness is co-located with DeviceTalks West, which focuses on the design and growth of medical units. 1000’s of robotics practitioners from world wide will convene on the Santa Clara Conference Heart, so register now to make sure your spot!
