Bota Systems AG will be showing off its comprehensive range of force-torque sensors, including its latest sensor specifically designed for larger collaborative robots, at RoboBusiness next week in Santa Clara, Calif. The company will be exhibiting in Booth 613 on the show floor.
Zurich-based Bota Systems specializes in cutting-edge sensors for robots and cobots. The company said its sensors are designed for humanoid, industrial, and medical robots — improving functions in fields such as welding and minimally invasive surgeries.
Force-torque sensors can give robots a sense of touch, enabling them to accurately and reliably perform tasks which were previously only possible with manual operators, said Bota Systems.
“At RoboBusiness, we will showcase our latest advancements in force-torque sensing technology,” Klajd Lika, CEO of Bota Systems, told The Robot Report. “Advancements in AI and machine learning promise to simplify robot programming, potentially increasing adoption even among users without robotics backgrounds, though challenges remain.”
“Robotics data, primarily from sensors measuring motion, is limited,” he added. “By capturing data that gives us information about the dynamic state of the robots, such as internal and external forces and tactile data, we can enhance training and inference efficiency.”
“We look forward to discussing how our technology will be shaping the future of robotics and why it is the ‘native language’ of robots that is hiding unlimited potential, at this year’s event,” said Lika.
See innovative sensors firsthand
RoboBusiness attendees will have an opportunity to see Bota Systems’ latest SensONE T80 force-torque sensor. It is the latest in the company’s SensONE line of lightweight six-axis force torque sensors for collaborative robots.
“This sensor is engineered to cover high sensitivity on the full payload range of large cobots, offering new possibilities for high-demand applications such as heavy palletizing and welding,” said Martin Wermelinger, head of robotics at Bota Systems. “We look forward to demonstrating how it will drive greater precision and efficiency in these and other complex tasks.”
Bota Systems said its SensONE sensors enable human-machine interaction and can provide force, vision, and inertia data. They can be used in a variety of industrial applications, including rehabilitation with robotic systems, precision assembly, product testing, polishing and grinding, and robotic-assisted surgery.
Meet with Bota Systems and more at RoboBusiness
In addition to perception and other enabling technologies, RoboBusiness will focus on robotics innovation, and business and investment topics related to running a robotics company. Keynotes at the event will feature:
- Rodney Brooks, co-founder and chief technology officer at Robust AI, as well as co-founder of iRobot and Rethink Robotics
- Sergey Levine, co-founder of Physical Intelligence and an associate professor at UC Berkeley
- Claire Delaunay, chief technology officer at farm-ng
- Torrey Smith, co-founder and CEO of Endiatx
- A panel on driving robotics innovation with ABB, DHL, NVIDIA, and Teradyne
RoboBusiness will include more than 70 speakers, over 100 exhibitors and demos on the expo floor, 10+ hours of dedicated networking time, the Pitchfire Robotics Startup Competition, a Women in Robotics Luncheon, and more.
RoboBusiness is co-located with DeviceTalks West, which focuses on the design and development of medical devices. Thousands of robotics practitioners from around the world will convene at the Santa Clara Convention Center, so register now to ensure your spot!
