The new TinySwitch-5 achieves up to 92% efficiency using basic diode rectification and optocoupler feedback.

Calvin is a voice-operated, self-balancing humanoid robot that is capable of taking on industrial tasks that are both painful and non-ergonomic, its developers explained.

The company’s innovative battery cell formation system, designed to support small batch operations, was showcased.

The handheld unit integrates high-performance barcode scanning with embedded ultra high frequency (UHF) radio frequency identification (RFID) tag reading.

The robot is capable of moving in a straight line up to 0.03 mph while navigating complex environments, such as those featuring relatively tight turning circles.

The CC1 Pro, which builds upon the company’s previous CC1 unit, features an expanded cleaning range and incorporates more advanced artificial intelligence (AI)-driven features.

Spectrum Instrumentation presents new arbitrary waveform generators (AWGs) with 10 GS/s output rate and 16-bit resolution.

The insect-inspired robot, dubbed mCLARI, was developed by the University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) researchers, while the inflatable snake robot was developed by a team at Purdue University.

The BlueWhale System created by IAI ELTA can discretely gather intelligence in the open seas and in challenging littoral waters, detecting and tracking both subsurface and surface targets, processing data on board to offer real-time actionable intelligence.

These cables enable plug-and-play connectivity, compatibility and interoperability within the battlefield management ecosystem.

The robot features a sensor-equipped head that is followed by several identical segments connected by cables that are each powered by motors that move the robot’s legs.

Possible functions that such robotic devices might take on could potentially include playing with pets, watering plants, carrying groceries from the car to the kitchen, delivering breakfast in bed and closing windows when it rains, among other tasks.

Standing at 1.5 inches tall — roughly the size of a LEGO minifigure — “Zippy” the robot can skip, climb, turn and walk. Additionally, the robot is comprised of a self-contained system that includes a battery, an actuator and a control unit.

The company will showcase its motion control suite for robotics and automation machine builders.

The robot dubbed "Ari" features separate compartments that can keep food hot or cold — reportedly a world-first functionality in robotic food delivery technology.
