🚕~ One slide in the deck of my talk about AI-controlled Humanoid Robots at Robotics Summit & Expo was triggering a particular amount of positive feedback: The dismantling of the Autonomy Levels used for autonomous cars by functionality and safety. Often referred to L1-L5, these actually describe both dimensions, but don't distinguish them - which is why, in my observations, they are often misunderstood: L2 doesn't mean that it can do less than >L3, it just means that it can't do that on its own. This is because the levels are now officially awarded according to the safety aspect, not the functional aspect. Tesla has an AI driver that can drive for you, A to B, quite reliably. Mercedes-Benz AG has driving automation that drives for you in the traffic jam (or up to 60kph/37mph). Now the other aspect is the safety certification of these. Mercedes let’s you focus on other tasks when in automatic driving, it's certified to do that reliabily. Tesla’s FSD, you have to watch at all times, because it’s not certified to be able to drive alone, even that it can functionally do much more. AI-controlled robots have the same challenge like Tesla's AI driver, when it comes to behavioral safety: With end-to-end neural control, there is no way to certify safety based on the classical methods of functional safety with full traceability from requirement to verification of the implementation. It can only be certified with statistics, which is very hard. At Synapticon, where we're leading the market with functional safety for motion control, we are working on bringing robot safety to the next level: Enabling safe, autonomous, intelligent robots that humans can rely on won't harm them, on a motion AND behavioral level. Stay tuned for POSITRON AI SAFETY updates 🦾 Let me know in the comments if you want a copy of the complete deck of my talk. I'll also present it next week on the Humanoid Summit Shanghai as well as on the Konradin Verlag RobotX Forum on 20th June - here added by explanations on how the robotic software stack is currently transformed by AI. #robotaxi #humanoids #robotics #safety #aisafety

Pawel provides insights into current trends and challenges within the robotics industry, focusing on the growing demand for automation to enhance operational efficiency. While acknowledging the benefits of automation, Pawel cautions that not all processes are conducive to automation due to cost implications. A significant challenge highlighted by Pawel is the extended lead time for procuring robotic components, which can result in delays in automation project timelines. This scarcity of parts may drive some individuals to opt for pre-assembled solutions to expedite the automation process. Pawel predicts a continued uptick in sales as consumers seek to streamline operations and boost productivity. Pawel draws attention to a concerning trend regarding the merging skill sets of robot programmers and PLC programmers, particularly in the U.S. This convergence can lead to time constraints and difficulties in fully mastering both disciplines simultaneously. While versatile skills are advantageous, Pawel suggests that specialization in specific areas can bring about cost savings and efficiencies. The importance of considering various factors during the robotic implementation phase is underscored by Pawel, including remote access options and recovery strategies. Additionally, the integration of tools is deemed crucial, as a robot's performance is heavily reliant on its tools. Programming roles are classified into drivers, programmers, and experts based on skill proficiency. #RoboticsIndustry #AutomationTrends #SkillConvergence
