Teleoperation platforms must have built-in safety protocols that account for remote operator error.

Self-driving technology always seems to be just beyond our grasp. Every year the leaders of this technological revolution say “soon.” The reason is a seemingly never-ending list of edge cases, situations which autonomy is incapable of handling. Hence the critical need – now and always – for safe teleoperation. Teleoperation is the technology that enables…

Freedom Robotics explains how it helped support the ERC Space and Robotics Event with teleoperation and remote monitoring software, as well as lessons learned for industrial automation.

Telerobotics is offering different industries new benefits, such as social distancing and safety for manufacturing and remote surgeries in healthcare, writes Energid’s Neil Tardella.

When using Jetson devices, Formant users can now enable real-time video and image analytics in the cloud and perform PII scrubbing at the edge, writes CEO Jeff Linnell in this column.

From agriculture and disinfection to retail and supply chain, robots are being rushed into development and deployment. Freedom Robotics says its cloud-based Pilot and Resource Monitor tools can help.

One of the most promising uses of 5G networking technology is in robotic remote surgery. China has led the way with several demonstrations, adding to U.S. concerns about international competitiveness.

DoorDash, a leader in on-demand food deliveries, is acquiring Scotty Labs, which is working on teleoperation of vehicles as a combination of human judgement and self-driving cars.

Startup SE4 is developing a robot operating system that combines computer vision, VR, and AI to enable humans to teleoperate robots with minimal latency.
