This robot is an easy programmable industrial robot that projected to replace human in industrial to increase the productivity.
iFork AGV is a heavy task robot that is made from the custom modification of OMG 808 fork lift truck. The modification here includes the electrical steering mechanism. This heavy task robot is able to load up to 800kg and lift them up to 3.1m height. While carrying those payload this robot could move at 2m/s. To control the elevation, traction, and motor direction a series of microcontroller boards are installed on this robot. SICK laser based positioning unit and SICK laser scanner sensor are included on this AGV.
Run by Paul Kocyla a small studio from Germany PK Remote Sensing developed an interactive female robot named KommuniKate. This female robot has a built-in artificial intelligent inside. She can interpret language and recognize faces. Connected into network and information this robot is not only able in answering question but also can show the context-sensitive multimedia with the projectors attached. KommuniKate is a combination project by Paul Kocyla and Anja Hammes
Panasonic as one of the biggest electronic manufacturers in the world has been committed in a research and development of robotics that helping or assisting people. There are two robots that Panasonic unveiled at the 37th International Home Care & Rehabilitation Exhibition (H.C.R.) 2010. One of them is a robot that helps you in washing hair; yes it is a hair washer robot! This robot is created in order to help workers in hospital to get more efficiently work in hospital, as the studies shown that workers cannot always attend for the hair washing because they have lots of works to do.
