Collaborative robotics to drive greater societal impact: Amazon's Brady

Amazon sees a future centred around 'collaborative robotics' where machines are geared to amplify human capability and potential, rather than replace them, according to Tye Brady, chief technologist at the e-commerce giant's robotics unit. Amazon, which recently deployed one-millionth robot in its global operations and introduced 'DeepFleet', an AI technology to optimally coordinate movement of robots across fulfilment network (its intelligent warehouses), asserts that robotics will play a key role in building more capable societies. The company has grown from deploying a single robot type that moved inventory shelves across warehouse floors in 2012, to operating a diverse fleet of robots aimed at boosting operational efficiency. Amazon's lineup of robots includes 'Hercules', which can lift and move up to 1,250 pounds of inventory, 'Pegasus' robots that use precision conveyor belts to handle individual packages, and 'Proteus'. 'Proteus', in fact, is a fully autonomous mobile robot,

Would you hail robotaxi? Musk bets cabs will give Tesla lift after boycotts

Elon Musk promised in 2019 that driverless Tesla robotaxis would be on the road next year, but it didn't happen. A year later, he promised to deliver them the next year, but that didn't happen either. Despite the empty pledges the promises kept coming. Last year in January, Musk said, Next year for sure, we'll have over a million robotaxis. Would you settle for 10 or 12? Musk appears to be on the verge of making his robotaxi vision a reality with a test run of a small squad of self-driving cabs in Austin, Texas, starting Sunday. Reaching a million may take a year or more, however, although the billionaire should be able to expand the service this year if the Austin demo is a success. The stakes couldn't be higher, nor the challenges. While Musk was making those next year promises, rival Waymo was busy deploying driverless taxis in Los Angeles, San Diego, Austin and other cities by using a different technology that allowed it to get to market faster. It just completed its 10 millio
