For nearly four decades, robots have primarily operated in controlled environments such as automotive plants and large distribution centers. These robots were typically fixed in place, with dedicated maintenance crews available on-site. Additionally, manufacturers could dispatch service engineers to...
The robotics industry is increasingly focusing on the post-installation phase as robot field service emerges as a critical challenge for automation scalability. Operational issues can arise when robots experience failures in remote locations, necessitating immediate technician intervention rather th...
The robotics industry is increasingly focused on the deployment and sales of robots, yet there is a significant gap in discussions regarding post-deployment support. Specifically, the challenges of field service are becoming apparent as robots require maintenance and repairs after installation. For...
On October 3, 2026, Astribot showcased its humanoid robot, Astribot T1, at IROS 2026 in Pittsburgh, USA, releasing a video summarizing its applications. The video highlights three key use cases: Efficient Training, Rapid Deployment, and Long-Horizon Execution. These applications demonstrate the rob...
Humanoid robots are being integrated into military operations, not as replacements for soldiers, but as specialized tools for hazardous tasks in human-designed environments. Their potential lies in performing dangerous physical work that traditional unmanned systems cannot safely or economically acc...
The U.S. Army has chosen six companies to develop prototypes of autonomous ground vehicles (UGVs) for critical battlefield missions, including resupply and casualty evacuation. This initiative, known as the Infantry Last Tactical Mile (ILTM), aims to enhance operations in high-risk areas where soldi...
HDT Robotics, also known as BLADE, has been selected as one of five companies to collaborate with the U.S. Army on Project Sustainment. This initiative, managed by the National Advanced Mobility Consortium (NAMC), aims to develop robotic systems capable of delivering supplies in high-risk battlefiel...
In a recent session, industry leaders discussed the integration of artificial intelligence and predictive technologies in asset maintenance and field service operations. The event highlighted how organizations are leveraging real-time asset insights to enhance their maintenance and service strategie...
Ukraine’s Defense Ministry is advancing its military capabilities by planning to acquire 25,000 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as part of its strategy for fully autonomous warfare. This initiative reflects the country's ongoing efforts to enhance its defense systems amid the ongoing conflict with R...
