We are seeing nowadays an everyday more efficient and amazing technologies development and numerous robotic projects. Mountain View, California, USA, Aerospace Company, Matternet produces aircraft and intelligent software for automated air logistics for the next 10 to 15 years. Drones will capture completely the delivery market which will make delivery services more efficient faster and cheaper even today. The matter net is testing its solutions with ups and Swiss post delivery services.
American drone manufacturer launched a pilot project in Zurich to test an efficient system for delivery of goods on the basis of vans and drones. This is the first case when drone operations are performed beyond visual line of sight with the use of vans as landing platforms in large urban areas.
Another company Mountain View, California, based Drive.ai, was founded in 2015 by a group of masters and postgraduate students from the artificial intelligence labs of Stanford University the group worked on their own autonomous driving system, which could be integrated into any car. In August 2016, the company received funding in the amount of 12 million dollars and became the 13th company in California which was licensed for autonomous vehicle testing and as soon as June 2017, it was funded with an additional 50 million dollars, in June 2019 just a few days before it was closed the company was acquired by Apple.
Interested in creating a drone system for its Titan automobile project, the company has a fleet of MKZ Audi a4 and Nissan nv200 automobiles for testing the automobile that can move in a completely autonomous mode at night and in inclement weather through busy streets and road interchanges. The object recognition system of the automobile makes it possible to identify and lay safely the route around other vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles. The drive.ai automobiles have screens on the outside of them one on the third and one on the back and one on each side to communicate with pedestrians.
The company collects the data on the roads and it uses to create high-definition three dimensional maps to support self-driving technology, we should never forget about way mode which was formerly Google’s unit and is now an independent company owned by Alphabet holding.
The Terra Bella also known as sky imaging was founded by 4 Google employees in 2009 in Mountain View, California, USA, while combining the power of web technologies and high resolution images from a group of satellites, the skybox imaging provided the data and HD video of Earthmen, their first Sky sat 1 satellite was placed into orbit in 2013 and in total, 15 such satellites were launched and they are still flying at the distance of 500 kilometers from the earth.
In February, 2017, a San Francisco based, Planet Labs Company, launched 88 satellites on the board of the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) rocket, this launched is the largest collection of satellites ever on a single rocket and after two months of the launched of the rocket that amazed the world, the Planet Labs bought the Terra Bella and its satellites.
The Beam Company was founded in Palo Alto California, USA, the Beam is a robotic remote present system which can teleport you to a remote location while allowing you to remove and interact with people. The robot is easy to operate and has a large display to make the communication of users with one another. The beam pro model can run up to eight hours on a single charge, after which it goes on its own to the dock station, it’s a 17 inch screen one HD camera with 3x zoom and navigation, camera, one speaker and seven microphones. The precise navigation allows you to go around and find the right person in the building; the robot is controlled by means of a phone or application with a height of 134 centimeters with a weight of about 30 kilograms, max speed 2 km/h and priced from two to fifteen thousand dollars depending on the model.
Double Robotics is another California based which also manufactures telepresence robots; the company was created with the support of the prestigious accelerator of Y Combinator in 2012. The robot with a height of a 150 centimeters and a weight of about 7 kilograms can operate on a battery for about 8 hours, and a smart ride on stand for an iPad. The price of this robot is three thousand dollars.
The medtech has not bypassed California either the restoration robots is a manufacturer of medical equipment which develops and markets. Test system is the first physician-assisted system to import hair follicles into bald areas of the scalp. The company has unique experience in the field of machine vision, image management, visual maintenance and robotics as well. As the development of intuitive interfaces to manage these technologies the robot works on the basis of the Kouga manipulator, the artists company developed the monarch system it is an innovative design for the diagnosis and performance of bronchoscope procedures. Lung cancer is a major cause of the cancer mortality throughout the world because it is often diagnosed in late stages only the design of the robotic endoscope provides the larger coverage vision and monitoring. It can be moved using a console with an intuitive interface the platform can operate on the universal robotics.
