“Swarm” robotics sounds like the stuff of science fiction, but it may actually be the future of the manufacturing industry. As NYU Tandon Professor Vikram Kapila told the group of manufacturing professionals gathered for the summer’s third OPS21 Robotics Awareness Workshop, swarm systems make integrating robotics into an industrial workplace safer and more efficient. Using LiDAR, robots that are part of a “swarm” on a manufacturing or warehouse floor can identify not only human workers and obstacles around them, but also each other. What’s more, adds Professor Kapila, “Using these kind of robots has become easier and more cost-effective given

MEET THE NEW e-Series FAMILY Built-in, tool-centric Force/Torque sensor enables the e-Series cobots to take on applications requiring force control right out of the box. A repeatability of 30 micron (0.03mm) in the UR3e and UR5e models and 50 micron (0.05mm) in the UR10e means e-Series cobots rival or outperform competitors such as KUKA LBR iiwa (±0.1mm), Rethink Robotics Sawyer (±0.1mm), ABB YuMi (±0.02mm) and FANUC CR-4iA (±0.013mm). Re-designed user interface decreases cognitive load and expedites program development. Advanced users can utilize the new externally accessible, 500Hz system bus to implement more complex motion control algorithms or profiles. New wrist-joint-tool
