Introducing Integrated Sense and Compute Package for AMRs

The term “collaborative robot” is gone — the future is all about collaborative applications. Without accurate force sensing, a robot marketed as “collaborative” could still pose a safety risk. With robust sensing, even high-power robots can be deployed in safe, collaborative applications. At XJCSENSOR, we see this shift as a welcome clarification. Collaboration is not a marketing buzzword — it’s an engineering achievement powered by advanced sensing and system-level design. 👉 As the industry evolves, our focus remains the same: delivering high-precision multi-axis force sensors that enable the safe, intelligent, and truly collaborative applications of tomorrow. #Robotics #Sensors #Collaboration #Safety #ForceSensor #XJCSENSOR.

Already one month under the K Youth Programme at Renesas Semiconductor together with Ahmad Fahmi , where we’re part of the Smart Factory team. I’ve learned a lot about Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and how they are applied in real factory environments. Here, we need to wear what’s called the Apollo attire to prevent dust from entering the process line, ensuring a clean and controlled environment. There are two types of AMRs in the factory. The first one carries trolleys containing magazines, a system that has been running for about three years. Recently, a Modbus system has been implemented to allow communication between the AMR, automatic doors, and lifts , enabling the robot to move across different floors and improving production efficiency. The second AMR is more complex, equipped with a robotic arm currently being set up for integration with the wire bonding machine. This system requires careful consideration of factors such as lighting and light reflection, as many sensors rely heavily on these conditions. The robot uses LiDAR, ultrasonic, camera, and infrared sensors , each playing a vital role in executing precise movements and actions. Its programming is done using a block diagram-based system, making it easier to visualize and manage each process. Feeling grateful to gain hands-on experience in automation, robotics, and smart manufacturing technologies! #kyouth #roadtosmartfactory #robotics #mechatronics

New from Sony: the IMX927 Series of Global Shutter CMOS sensors is ideal for robotics and AMRs, delivering non-distortion imaging at high speed with Pregius S back-illuminated pixels and the SLVS-EC high speed interface for rapid readout. The lineup scales to ~105 MP and ~100 fps for high throughput perception. It is not limited to robotics, the same capabilities support broader industrial imaging from factory automation to inspection and infrastructure monitoring. Evaluate with Macnica Americas. Our Sensor to Solution model provides no soldering evaluation, drivers, ISP tuning, interface bridging, and lifecycle planning, so your team can hit application GTM objectives.

Imagine robotic fingers that can tell what’s inside a non‐transparent container without cameras—just by touch. A multimodal tactile sensor system combining thermal conduction and vibration sensors, processed via CNNs, has achieved ~97.5% accuracy classifying both types of liquid and the fill volume. Nature - https://lnkd.in/gEiQWNzu This is huge for applications in smart manufacturing, quality control, and robotics where optical sensing fails (fog, darkness, obscured view). What’s one industrial or biomedical scenario where this tactile sensing could outperform traditional vision-based systems? #TactileSensing #MachineLearning #Robotics #SmartManufacturing #Mechatronics

SkipcrossNets: Revolutionizing Road Detection with Adaptive Multi-Modal Fusion 🚗💡 Tired of rigid multi-modal fusion in autonomous driving? Meet SkipcrossNets—a game-changing architecture that dynamically fuses Altitude Difference Images (ADIs) from point clouds and camera data across all network layers! 🌉🔄 Unlike traditional two-stream networks stuck at a single fusion point, SkipcrossNets uses a skip-cross strategy to connect every layer bidirectionally. This lets features propagate freely, picking the most complementary layers from both modalities to boost road detection accuracy. 🧠✨ By projecting point clouds into ADIs, it preserves critical height/depth details often lost in 2D. The result? 96.85% MaxF on KITTI and 84.84% F1 on A2D2—all while running at 68.24 FPS with just 2.33 MB of memory. 🚀📊 Perfect for real-time edge devices! 📱🔋 Dive into the future of adaptive fusion: https://lnkd.in/gR97TZ6n #AutonomousDriving #ComputerVision #AI
