Because of the different functions and skills of various brands of products, industrial robots generally use their own brand control system, which has caused the complexity of the industrial robot control system. In this case, often a robot technician learns a brand of control system, but still does not use another brand of robot control system, which undoubtedly adds a lot of difficulty to the skilled personnel to learn to operate the robot!
The Android system is now one of the control systems that are widely used in smartphones and other fields, which is very easy to use, and most people have a foundation for use. So, can we use the Android system to control industrial robots? Recently, a company wanted to turn this idea into reality! Let's take a look at the report:
We all know what Android is, which is a free and open-source operating system for smartphones. However, there is no "Android system for robots" yet. On the contrary, we have many, many proprietary systems. A new start-up is tackling this problem and is taking off the mall for real.
MOV. The AI solution creates an ecosystem in which developers, integrators, and manufacturers can collaborate to develop the first industrial-grade operating system for autonomous intelligent cobots. This could lead to smarter robots for large-scale operations and production lines.
MOV. AI describes itself as a "ROS-compatible operating system". This means that it is capable of industrial-grade deployments in the ranks of autonomous robots. The idea is that it will decouple hardware and software, making robotic automation affordable for any manufacturer through simpler development.
The ROS will aim to cover easier mapping, robust autonomous navigation, obstacle avoidance, cloud-based software release, best practices for adherence to security and cybersecurity, and modern end-user interfaces.
MOV. The main target audience for AI is data processing equipment manufacturers, automation integrators, and other cobot manufacturers.
MOV. "At MOV.AI, our mission is to contribute to a world where intelligent robots fulfill most of the general physical missions, which will enable humans to become more creative and productive, and accomplish faster mall scalability," said Limor Schweitzer, founder and chief fulfillment officer of AI. In other words, we will be able to transform human-operated mobile machines into autonomous robots that can work safely alongside humans and other robots in any environment, at all scalable levels. ”
Ronen Nir, general partner at Viola Ventures, said: "We believe that the impact and potential value of MOV.AI ecosystem will be highlighted as more and more large customers, distributors and developers come on board. ”
MOV. AI shows that pilot projects are now being carried out with large automation integrators and industrial operators.
With the development of technology, the simple control of industrial robots will come soon.
