…Industrial Robots (MiR). Last week, UR demonstrated an autonomous inspection system powered by NVIDIA Isaac cuMotion path planning at the GTC global AI conference in San Jose, California. MiR recently launched its new MiR1200 autonomous pallet jack, which harnesses AI pallet detection powered by the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin module. The MiR1200 Pallet Jack and UR’s cuMotion demo are Teradyne’s two most recent examples of “physical AI” systems, with others already available through Teradyne Robotics’ ecosystem partners, OEMs, and end users, the company said. Ujjwal Kumar, group president of Teradyne Robotics, said the recent examples are the first of a…

…showing the user live robot locations, active missions and inspection alerts. Users can create and modify mission recordings, allowing organizations to record multiple sessions – with multiple robots over multiple days – and merge this information into a single map in Orbit. The offering also creates more mission scheduling flexibility to loop based on user-designated preferences. For example, users can choose to loop within a launch window, specific days and times or other designated timeframes. Timeframes can also include exclusions, such as weekends or other downtimes. Orbit is currently available as a cloud offering for North American customers, with more…
