Robotics & Automation
Toka has developed a high efficiency continuously variable transmission (CVT) that's simple, lightweight, compact and is suitable for numerous applications from subsea to aerospace.
Toka could be used as a Variable Speed Drive alternative i.e. CVT-as-VSD, for applications that see broadly varying speed and/or load conditions.
NASA Langley Research Center has developed multiple ways for amorphous robots to autonomously move across a surface without needing conventional wheels or legs. Amorphous robots are useful in dusty and sandy environments in which greater mobility, passive shape changing, and immunity to dust and contamination are important.
Our design addresses the challenge of efficiently handling rings that are either stacked or randomly spread on the floor. Manual handling of such small items can be labor-intensive, error-prone, and time-consuming, especially in industrial and logistical settings where precision and efficiency are critical.
The increasing popularity of helium-assisted blimps for extended monitoring or data collection applications is hindered by a critical limitation -- single-point failure when the balloon malfunctions or bursts. We introduce Janus,
Innovation:
A team from Caltech, JPL and Dow have designed an autonomous, quadruped, climbing robot that can inspect the interior of complex chemical plant equipment. The motivation is for a safer alternative to human entry into confined spaces.
Over 1,000,000 people are killed each year during urban disasters. 2,500,000 people will be permanently disabled or displaced, and the affected communities will take 20 to 30 years to recover and billions of dollars in economic losses.
Crest Robotics' Robotic Puller is a new product for the energy sector designed to assist linemen and riggers with maintaining and upgrading our energy infrastructure. As an evolution on an existing product known as a 'traction motor,' our puller is lighter, stronger, more efficient, and more intelligent,
The Self-Driving Robot for the Blind (SDRB) is a purpose-built device aimed to assist individuals with visual impairments to navigate safely from a point to another. The navigation of the robot is guided by instructions transmitted from the user's mobile phone,
The LayMaster 3000, designed by Engr. Obasogie Okpamen, is an innovative pipeline construction truck engineered to streamline the process of laying and welding pipelines in difficult terrains. This all-in-one mobile platform integrates essential pipeline construction functions, significantly enhancing efficiency, safety, and operational effectiveness in the field.
Nowadays, mountains and nature in them are suffering because tourists do not care about local ecological stability. They throw litter and takeovers from the stuff they used during the trip, and the natural environment and its creatures are getting damaged,
