Today, cameras are often more than just suppliers of images – they can recognise objects, generate results or trigger follow-up processes. Visitors to VISION Stuttgart, Germany, can find out about the possibilities offered by state-of-the-art camera technology at IDS booth 8C60. There, they will discover the next level of the all-in-one AI system IDS NXT. The company is not only expanding the machine learning methods to include anomaly detection, but is also developing a significantly faster hardware platform. IDS is also unveiling the next stage of development for its new uEye Warp10 cameras. By combining a fast 10GigE interface and TFL mount, large-format sensors with up to 45 MP can be integrated, opening up completely new applications. The trade fair innovations also include prototypes of the smallest IDS board-level camera and a new 3D camera model in the Ensenso product line.IDS NXT: More than artificial intelligence
IDS NXT is a holistic system with a variety of workflows and tools for realising custom AI vision applications. The intelligent IDS NXT cameras can process tasks “on device” and deliver image processing results themselves. They can also trigger subsequent processes directly. The range of tasks is determined by apps that run on the cameras. Their functionality can therefore be changed at any time. This is supported by a cloud-based AI Vision Studio, with which users can not only train neural networks, but now also create vision apps. The system offers both beginners and professionals enormous scope for designing AI vision apps. At VISION, the company shows how artificial intelligence is redefining the performance spectrum of industrial cameras and gives an outlook on further developments in the hardware and software sector.MediauEye Warp10: High speed for applications
With 10 times the transmission bandwidth of 1GigE cameras and about twice the speed of cameras with USB 3.0 interfaces, the recently launched uEye Warp10 camera family with 10GigE interface is the fastest in the IDS range. At VISION, the company is demonstrating that these models will not only set standards in terms of speed, but also resolution. Thanks to the TFL mount, it becomes possible to integrate much higher resolution sensors than before. This means that even detailed inspections with high clock rates and large amounts of data will be feasible over long cable distances. The industrial lens mount allows the cameras to fully utilise the potential of large format (larger than 1.1″) and high resolution sensors (up to 45 MP).uEye XLS: Smallest board-level camera with cost-optimised design
IDS is presenting prototypes of an additional member of its low-cost portfolio at the fair. The name uEye XLS indicates that it is a small variant of the popular uEye XLE series. The models will be the smallest IDS board-level cameras in the range. They are aimed at users who, e.g. for embedded applications, require particularly low-cost, extremely compact cameras with and without lens holders in large quantities. They can look forward to Vision Standard-compliant project cameras with various global shutter sensors and trigger options.Ensenso C: Powerful 3D camera for large-volume applications
3D camera technology is an indispensable component in many automation projects. Ensenso C is a new variant in the Ensenso 3D product line that scores with a long baseline and high resolution, while at the same time offering a cost-optimised design. Customers receive a fully integrated, pre-configured 3D camera system for large-volume applications that is quickly ready for use and provides even better 3D data thanks to RGB colour information. A prototype will be available le at the fair.Learn more: https://en.ids-imaging.com/ueye-warp10.html

<strong>Konstanz, 13. September 2022 – fruitcore robotics zeigt erstmalig auf der Motek 2022 seine neuen Komplettlösungen horstCUBE plug & play sowie die neue Version von horstFX. Die Bediensoftware der Robotik-Expert:innen aus Konstanz wurde vollständig überarbeitet. Die neue Version von horstFX macht die Bedienung einfacher sowie komplexer Anwendungen noch leichter und setzt damit einen neuen Benchmark. fruitcore robotics stellt in Halle 7 am Stand 7304 aus.</strong>Die neue Version der Bediensoftware horstFX bringt viele neue Features mit sich. „Globale Funktionen“ machen die <a href="https://fruitcore-robotics.com/shop/">HORST-Roboter</a> in verschiedenen Anwendungen noch schneller einsetzbar, weil Funktionen mit einem Klick in andere Programme übernommen werden können. Neu ist auch die Möglichkeit zur „Individuellen Anpassung der Bedienoberfläche“ durch Kund:innen selbst. „Smart Makro-Buttons“ sind frei mit häufig verwendeten Funktionen belegbar und erleichtern so sowohl die Programmierung als auch den Betrieb des Roboters. Häufig verwendete Funktionen können beispielsweise das Anfahren der Grundstellung oder Start und Stopp eines Förderbandes sein. Ein weiteres neues Hauptfeature ist die „Nutzerspezifische Ansicht“. In ihr wird die Bedienoberfläche auf drei Bedienelemente sowie eine Anzeige des Prozessstatus reduziert. Zudem besteht die Möglichkeit, in den Screen „Smart Makro Buttons“ zur Ausführung gewünschter Funktionen zu integrieren. So ist im Betrieb der Automatisierungsanwendung maximale Einfachheit für den Bediener gegeben.Die neue Version von horstFX stellt darüber hinaus die Grundlage für die Soft-SPS-Funktion zur Steuerung paralleler und komplexer Prozesse dar, deren Einführung fruitcore robotics in der Zukunft plant. „Die Soft-SPS-Funktion wird eine zusätzliche SPS-Steuerung für einen Großteil der Anwendungen überflüssig machen und dadurch bei unseren Kund:innen zu einer weiteren Vereinfachung und Kostenreduktion führen, so Patrick Heimburger, Geschäftsführer von fruitcore robotics. „Es sind dann keine Kenntnisse in der SPS- oder Roboterprogrammierung mehr notwendig, um mit horstFX und HORST-Robotern zu automatisieren.“
<a href="https://robots-blog.com/wp-content/uploads/fruitcore-robotics_neue-Version-horstFX_%E2%80%9ESmart-Marko-Buttons-1024x576.png">fruitcore-robotics_neue-Version-horstFX_„Smart-Marko-Buttons</a>Die neue Bediensoftware steht sowohl als Online-Version als auch als Desktop-Version ab sofort zur Verfügung. Mit Trial-Varianten können sich Nutzende von der Einfachheit der Bedienung überzeugen und schon vor der Kaufentscheidung testen, ob HORST ihren Anforderungen entspricht. Auch am High-End-Spektrum der Software werden die Grenzen mit weiteren Features künftig verschoben: Die grafische Programmierung komplexer Pfade und nutzerspezifische Koordinatensysteme helfen bei der Umsetzung von pfadabhängigen Anwendungen, wie beispielsweise dem Schweißen oder Kleben und bei Anwendungen, bei denen eine relative Orientierung des Roboters zu bestimmten Objekten, beispielsweise einer zu beladenden Maschine, bei der Programmierung hilft.<strong>horstCUBE plug & play Laser erweitert Portfolio der Komplettlösungen</strong>Im Mittelpunkt des Messeauftritts steht außerdem die Neuheit horstCUBE plug & play. Das Publikum kann auf der Motek 2022 erstmals gleich zwei standardisierte Anwendungsfälle live erleben.

<pre class="wp-block-code">Guest Article by Ellie Poverly - Ellie is an online journalist specializing in robotics and science research. She is also the Managing Editor at Revolutionized Magazine. </pre>As of 2022, <a href="https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/ocean">roughly 80% of the ocean remains a mystery. In fact, much of it hasn’t even been seen by humans yet. There have been more photographs of the Moon’s surface than the ocean floor.Exploring the deepest parts of the ocean is an incredible challenge, complicated by intense pressures and complete darkness. Here’s a look at the robots that could finally reveal the secrets of Earth’s oceans.<strong>The Limits of Human Exploration</strong>Over half of the tallest mountain on Earth is underwater. The volcano Mauna Kea in Hawai’i is estimated to be <a href="https://www.livescience.com/tallest-mountain-on-earth">around a mile taller than Mt. Everest from base to peak, although most of it is submerged. This massive volcano is just one of countless secrets hiding beneath the surface of Earth’s oceans.<a href="https://robots-blog.com/wp-content/uploads/image-45-768x1024.png">image-45</a>Other discoveries waiting underwater range from the wrecks of lost aircraft to the remains of sunken ships and even sunken cities, as well as life that looks like something from an alien world. Exploring the ocean floor could reveal groundbreaking archaeological, geological and biological discoveries. So, why haven’t humans started SCUBA diving down to the seabed?Unfortunately, reaching the ocean floor is not easy, especially for humans. The deepest part of the ocean <a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-mariana-trench-is-7-miles-deep-whats-down-there/">is the Mariana Trench, which extends 7 miles — or about 36,200 feet — deep. To put that into perspective, the world record <a href="https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/news/2014/9/ahmed-gabr-breaks-record-for-deepest-scuba-dive-at-more-than-1000-feet-60537/">for the deepest SCUBA dive is only 1,090 feet, set by diver Ahmed Gabr in 2014. Approximately 1,000 feet below sea level is considered the maximum depth humans can dive.Luckily, humans have invented some amazing robots to help explore the ocean floor remotely.<a href="https://robots-blog.com/wp-content/uploads/image-48-1024x683.png">image-48</a><strong>The Robotic SCUBA Divers Exploring the Depths</strong>A growing number of robotic SCUBA divers travel down to the deepest reaches of the ocean. Some look like mini submarines, while others are eerily human-like. These robots help scientists study a wide range of topics and may become even more crucial in the years ahead.For instance, climate change <a href="https://www.charm.com/understanding-mycotoxins-and-predicting-risk-in-changing-climate/">increases the risk of food toxins on the surface. Could this be happening underwater as well? Additionally, the strange biology of deep-sea life could help researchers learn more about how life evolved on Earth and how it might exist on other worlds.The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution has <a href="https://www.whoi.edu/what-we-do/explore/underwater-vehicles/auvs/orpheus/">explored depths of 36,000 feet below sea level in the Mariana Trench using a robotic submarine called Orpheus. The robot is helping create 3D imaging of the ocean floor and capture video footage of deep-sea life. Its navigation system may one day be used in robots that explore the dark oceans of the moons of Jupiter and Saturn.<a href="https://robots-blog.com/wp-content/uploads/image-47-682x1024.png">image-47</a>Taking a completely different approach is the OceanOne robotic SCUBA diver developed by researchers at Stanford University. The OceanOne is designed to be as human-like as possible, acting as a robotic avatar for human divers. On <a href="https://news.stanford.edu/2016/04/27/robotic-diver-recovers-treasures/">its maiden voyage in 2016, OceanOne was used to retrieve the first treasures ever recovered from the flagship of King Louis XIV, wrecked…

motion plastics von igus mit intuitiver Software von Commonplace Robotics für einfache Lösungen in der AutomatisierungKöln, 29. September 2022 – Der motion plastics Spezialist igus investiert in den Ausbau seiner Aktivitäten in der Low Cost Automatisierung und hat jetzt die mehrheitlichen Anteile an Commonplace Robotics mit Sitz in Bissendorf bei Osnabrück erworben. Commonplace Robotics ist als Integrator spezialisiert auf intuitiv bedienbare Steuerung und Software sowie Leistungselektronik für die Robotik, sowohl im Industrie- als auch im Bildungsbereich. Beide Unternehmen arbeiten bereits seit sechs Jahren intensiv zusammen und haben unter anderem gemeinsam die igus Robot Control entwickelt, welche die Low Cost Kinematiken von igus aus Hochleistungskunststoffen ergänzt.

Vor 11 Jahren gründete Dr. Christian Meyer, bis dahin im Fraunhofer-Institut für Produktionstechnik und Automatisierung tätig, die Firma Commonplace Robotics. Der Name war Programm: Die Integration und Bedienung von Robotern so günstig und einfach machen, dass sie “commonplace” werden – also überall einsetzbar sind. Die ersten Produkte mit Steuerung und eigener Leistungselektronik waren Roboter für die Didaktik. 2016 trat Christian Meyer an igus heran, denn er stellte fest, dass die Roboter-Kinematiken von igus zu seiner Vision von “commonplace” passten: günstig, einfach, tauglich für die Industrie. Inzwischen haben die beiden Unternehmen gemeinsam Produkte wie die iRC igus Robot Control und den ReBeL Cobot sowie einen Aktuator entwickelt. Durch die hohe Fertigungstiefe von Commonplace Robotics – von Firmware und Software über Schaltschrankbau bis hin zur Platinenbestückung – können Neuentwicklungen schnell umgesetzt werden.Mit gestärkter Innovationskraft die Low Cost Automation vorantreiben„Viele Kunden sind überrascht, dass sie ohne Programmierkenntnisse einfache Roboteraufgaben schon in 30 Minuten realisieren können”, sagt Frank Blase, Geschäftsführer der igus GmbH. „Wir freuen uns sehr, dass nach der intensiven Zusammenarbeit der letzten sechs Jahre jetzt ein noch fokussierteres Vorgehen bei der Low Cost Automatisierung möglich ist.” Mit der Akquisition bündeln Commonplace Robotics und igus ihre Innovationskraft. Dr. Christian Meyer sagt: „Wir freuen uns auf spannende technologische Projekte mit igus. Gerade über die von igus betriebene Plattform RBTX für Low Cost Robotik kommen täglich neue Anforderungen von Kunden aus allen Bereichen der Industrie in unsere Labore. Vieles davon ist schnell umsetzbar, zumal wir mit der Investition expandieren werden.” Neuestes Produkt der Kooperation ist der ReBeL Cobot für 4.970 Euro inklusive Steuerung. Der Aktuator, auch als Einzelkomponente erhältlich, kombiniert das Kunststoff-Knowhow von igus im Getriebe mit der Leistungselektronik und Software von Commonplace Robotics. Der ReBeL kann mit sechs Achsen bis zu zwei Kilogramm Traglast bei einer Reichweite von 664 Millimetern handhaben – und das bei einem Eigengewicht von nur 8,2 Kilogramm. Anfragen und Bestellungen kommen einerseits aus klassischen Anwendungsgebieten wie der Qualitätskontrolle und Pick and Place- Anwendungen im Maschinenbau, und andererseits aus neuen Anwendungsgebieten wie der Restaurant-Automatisierung oder dem Urban Farming.

Auf der Motek in Stuttgart (Halle 7, Stand 7320 und 7321) und der SPS Messe in Nürnberg (Halle 4, Stand 310) können sich Interessierte live einen Eindruck der gemeinsam entwickelten Innovationen verschaffen.
