EPFL roboticists have shown that when a modular robot shares power, sensing, and communication resources among its individual units, it is significantly more resistant to failure than traditional robotic systems, where the breakdown of one element often means a loss of functionality.

Resource-sharing boosts robotic resilience

In large-scale warehousing and distribution operations, conveyor belts are an essential infrastructure that must operate with near-zero downtime to ensure the timely delivery of products. The presence of loose or foreign items on a conveyor belt can pose a serious risk to these operations.

You've probably heard about the amazing capabilities of some recent AI models, such as GPT, AI21, or BLOOM. Perhaps you use one of these models yourself. Either directly, or through another product like Wordtune, YouWrite, Jasper – or ChatGPT. It turns out that while these models are trained on language data, they can be used for other applications as well. In my latest article, you can read more about applications in materials discovery, cybersecurity, and even building management.

Applying large-scale language models outside language: Examples from materials discovery, cybersecurity, and building management

The manufacturing industry (largely) welcomed artificial intelligence with open arms. Less of the dull, dirty, and dangerous? Say no more. Planning for mechanical assemblies still requires more than scratching out some sketches, of course — it’s a complex conundrum that means dealing with arbitrary 3D shapes and highly constrained motion required for real-world assemblies.

Cybernetics can help to create a safe, sustainable and responsible future in a complex world.

What is Cybernetics?

Digital transformation and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) continue to impact industry at all levels. While it's seen its earliest adoption in large-scale manufacturing and transport, it's spreading rapidly into other sectors.
