When I paid a trip to the company's offices on my trip to Boston last week, Pickle pointed out precisely how large of a problem this has become.
Traditional heavy equipment like forklifts come with their own issues. The company describes their offering thusly, "Pickle is founded by a cast of MIT alumni. We are teaching off-the-shelf robot arms how to pick up boxes and play Tetris.
Humanoid Robots: Sooner Than You Might Think
Robots are making their first tentative steps from the factory floor into our homes and workplaces. In a recent report, Goldman Sachs Research estimates a $6 billion market (or more) in people-sized-and-shaped robots is achievable in the next 10 to 15 years.
GS Research makes an additional, more ambitious projection as well.
Universal Robots reaches 1,000 employees
Seventeen years after it was founded by three visionary young researchers in a basement, Universal Robots has just reached a 1,000-employee milestone.
10th November, Odense, Denmark. Universal Robots, the biggest company in a fast-growing Danish robotics hub, has become the cluster's first organisation to reach 1,000 employees – one of only a few Danish companies founded in this millennium to hit this milestone.
Robots in healthcare will soon be seen 'as companions rather than tools'
Robots will soon be being deployed more as companions than tools in the healthcare industry, and revolutionary surgical robots will be able to carry out more complex procedures – some of which have never been seen before.
The medical robotics market was worth $4.7bn in 2020 and will be worth a whopping $14.5bn in 2030, according to GlobalData forecasts.

The Peripheral Shows How Weird Westworld's Robots COULD Have Been
Warning: Contains SPOILERS for The Peripheral season 1 Prime Video's The Peripheral might be similar to Westworld at times, but it also shows just how tame the latter's robots really were.
At first glance, the robots in The Peripheral are peculiar and look like simple walking mannequins. Robots in Westworld are like walking computers, but they could be weirder, never pushing creative limits in the way that The Peripheral does.
Transforming Robots Help to Transfer Skills - Scientific American
Robots of all shapes and sizes increasingly populate workplaces, from factories to operating rooms. Many of the bots rely on attaining new skills by trial and error through machine learning .
Let’s say you have a robot arm with a humanlike hand. You’ve trained its five fingers to pick up a hammer and whack a peg into a board. Now you want a two-fingered gripper to do the same job.
How Lego and MIT Came Together To Give Us Lego Robots
More than ever, it was crucial that LEGO stay alert and on its toes.
Kjeld: Personally, I was fascinated by the first handheld games, and later also by the big gaming consoles with joysticks. I wouldn't say that as a toy company we were afraid of the new competition, however, at least not in the beginning.
What Happened to the Robots in BU's COVID-19 Testing Lab?
Over the past two years, Boston University's Clinical Testing Laboratory has processed an extraordinary number of COVID-19 tests—more than two million.
Now, with those days of regular testing at BU behind us , the multimillion dollar lab is giving its high-speed, super-efficient robots a new mission: power research from across the University.
