The introduction of EMILY (Emergency Integrated Lifesaving Lanyard) is making the process easier. EMILY was developed by a company named Hydronalix to assist victims of hurricane and flooding. Twenty-four hours after hurricane Dorian occurred in Abaco Island in the Bahamas, rescuers used EMILY to provide aid to people. EMILY is a water vehicle that utilizes sonar technology. Emily can indicate where underwater debris is as it would impede navigation. EMILY is also remoted controlled. EMILY can be also sent to someone lost at sea. The water vehicle has handles victims can hold on to and use to pull themselves out of the water.
This study found that the group of seniors that interacted with Paro became less lonely. This wasn’t the case with the second group. The other group of seniors that participated in other interactive activities away from the retirement home became lonelier. Also, a living dog was brought to the home every day so that the seniors can interact with it. It was observed that these seniors were more interactive when it came to Paro as compared to the living dog. Read extra info at a quality post.
Each of these events is a carnival where you’d feel right at home, with people who share the same interests as you. You would get a chance to interact and learn from your superiors and those who call the shots in the robotics industry. With that being said, it is essential that you take part in some of these, especially if you are a tech-geek. For the tech-savvy, these events are a dream come true. While we are preparing for those, do you, by any chance know any other conferences or events which will take place next year and which we failed to mention here? We are sure that there are plenty of those and we cannot wait to hear about them – leave the comment below!
Samsung Bot Care: At CES 2019, Samsung presented a range of impressive and practical care robots specifically designed to help users manage their daily health routine.

Yes, once again, a robot will have your back when in trouble! Emotech Olly Robot: If you think Olly is just another smart home assistant, you are completely wrong. Developed by Emotech, Olly is the first robot with an evolving personality. I’m sorry to break it to you, but – despite being a robot – Olly is as unique as you are. Capable of learning and growing based on your routines and habits, Olly will adapt to YOU.

Kevlar is well known as bulletproof attire. It is made of strong synthetic fibers that can also withstand both hot and cold environments. It can keep the oil on your robots from freezing and melting. Making your robot wear kevlar attire enables it to go on harsh environments. Isn’t that what makes the robot heavy duty? Kevlar, as a fabric, makes your robot maintain its motion and function. Also, damaged Kevlar covering can be replaced without disassembling your robot. It’s just like making your robot wear protective clothes, increasing its durability in harsh environments. This material is used in various other industries such as the car industry. For instance, most of the presidential vehicles use Kevlar as protection from terrorist attacks and possible strayed bullets and other dangers. Speaking of which, if you want to make a robot that will withstand harsh conditions and certain threats from the outside, this is the material to go with.
However, the automotive OEMs took the front row in the number of units ordered in the market as it witnessed a total of 83% demand, the highest amongst other industries.

Plastic & Rubber, Metals, and other industries were also captured in the demand growth with an increase of 8%, 11%, and 4% respectively.
As more data is collected, the decisions of these systems will improve. The end result will be a level of efficiency that we once didn’t think possible. The digital connection of these devices make Industry 4.0 a possibility. In each stage of these industrial revolutions, companies have had to keep up with technology or be left behind. Connected technology will be the next revolution that companies will have to follow. If they don’t, their level of production will be less than their rivals.
