Kollmorgen will address the challenges of transitioning humanoid robot prototypes to scalable products at RoboBusiness 2023. Yoshi Umeno, the global director of business development for robotics at Kollmorgen, will present a session titled 'A Joint-by-Joint Guide to Humanoid Motion' on October 20, focusing on the unique demands of each body zone in humanoid robotics.
This presentation is significant as it highlights the bottleneck in humanoid robotics development, where the speed of software iteration contrasts sharply with the lengthy process of motion hardware production. Umeno aims to provide a framework for evaluating motion partners and co-engineering support, which could streamline the path from prototype to volume production.
Attendees of RoboBusiness 2023 can expect to gain insights into the latest trends and research in robotics and AI, with opportunities for networking and collaboration. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
Editor's Note
The robotics industry is increasingly focused on overcoming the challenges of scaling humanoid robots from prototypes to manufacturable products. Kollmorgen's insights into motion control and co-engineering support could significantly impact the development timelines for humanoid OEMs, enhancing their ability to bring innovative solutions to market.
