RSF defines a common language for robot service capability, lifecycle operations, certification pathways, and service-provider networks.
ASE solved automotive service in 1972. Fifty years later, RSF does the same for robotics. Learn how the certification blueprint was adapted — and what had to be built from scratch.
As warehouses deploy robots from multiple vendors, interoperability becomes critical. Learn how robotics orchestration platforms like Roboteon enable seamless multi-vendor AMR integration, fleet management, and plug-and-play automation for distribution centers.
Anduril’s YFQ-44A Fury flew its first semi-autonomous mission on 31 October 2025 — 556 days from contract to flight. By February 2026 it was carrying live missiles and swapping autonomy software mid-flight. China’s Jiutian drone mothership flew on 11 December 2025, capable of releasing over 100 loitering munitions from its internal bay at 15,000 metres. And the U.S. Air Force is standing up its second experimental one-way attack drone unit for mid-2026. This article maps the most consequential aerial autonomous systems competition in history: the CCA programme that will determine U.S. air dominance in the 2030s, the Valkyrie’s surprising rebirth, the A-GRA open-architecture breakthrough, and the Chinese drone mothership that has no Western equivalent.
Ukraine’s ‘Sub Sea Baby’ autonomous torpedo struck a Russian Kilo-class submarine inside Novorossiysk harbour in December 2025 — the first confirmed underwater drone attack on a submarine in history. The U.S. Navy is requesting $5.3 billion for unmanned maritime systems in FY2026, a 70 percent year-on-year increase. Saronic Technologies went from prototype to $392 million production contract in under 12 months. And DARPA’s Manta Ray XL-UUV completed full-scale sea trials. This article maps the maritime autonomous systems revolution — from Ukraine’s improvised Black Sea fleet to the Pentagon’s hybrid manned–unmanned force of the 2030s, and from Saronic’s Franklin, Louisiana shipyard to Boeing’s 85-tonne robot submarine.
Post-harvest robotics automate sorting, grading, packing, and cold storage across the $7.5B equipment market. Deep-dive on TOMRA, Unitec, MAF Roda, Greefa, JBT, Bühler, and the AI-driven platforms replacing 450,000+ packhouse workers by 2030.
The LUCAS drone debuted in Operation Epic Fury (Feb 28, 2026). Analysis covers confirmed specs, operational role, swarm integration, and implications for autonomous strike systems.
Construction robots can lay 6× more bricks than humans—but unions, labor law, and political calculus are keeping them off U.S. sites. How Japan, Singapore, and Europe are winning the race instead.
From MIT roots to Roomba dominance and financial crisis, this deep dive traces iRobot’s rise, missteps, and lessons for today’s home robotics industry.
An arm prosthesis with dexterous control and sensory feedback delivers winning performance at Cybathlon, showcasing advances in assistive robotics and human-machine integration.
