Robot sidekicks – Meet the Cobots

From testing samples in labs to making computer chips, collaborative robots (cobots) are working together with humans to transform our lives. Cobots are taking on repetitive and mundane tasks and helping create the flexibility and scalability for small and medium-sized enterprises to grow. Host Fran Scott is joined by ABB’s Global Product Manager for Collaborative Robotics, Andie Zhang; roboticist Dr Ayanna Howard from the Georgia Institute of Technology; and Ákos Dömötör, Head of Strategic Sales at Glaub Automation. They meet ABB’s brand-new suite of stronger, faster, more flexible cobots, and explore the innovative possibilities our helpful robot sidekicks make possible.   Part of the ABB Decoded Series of podcasts, The Robot Podcast is a Fresh Air Production.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
