Today’s automation connectivity support IIoT and Industry 4.0. setups, but the threat of cyber attacks on robots is very real. In fact, robots are just as exposed to corporate networks and the internet as other setups in industrial plants and applications — leaving them and their environments vulnerable. Now a new report from Trend Micro […]

Dr. Razvan Panaitescu, AMD PM MS, Siemens Industry, Inc. Converting print unit systems to gearless systems may be a new concept in the printing industry, but better accuracy often results. For years, printing systems have used the same gear designs to replicate an image. With these designs, alignment problems happen, as well as inconsistencies in […]

I’m always surprised when I come to Stanford. I find new companies setting up shop in the area. Ford’s new research lab wasn’t there the last time I drove by, for example. Later, when walking around Palo Alto and in a restaurant I could hear snippets of conversation that were different than most other college…
