Robotics Rebuilds Manufacturing Landscape

May 24, 2018

Jay Douglass, ARM COO, describes the acceleration of robotics adoption in manufacturing as the “confluence of several factors”

“Among the economic factors is that hardware, software and implementation is getting cheaper. Technologically, robots are reaching new levels of functionality with vision, perception and manipulation,” Douglass continues. “The social factor is that the economy is reaching full employment. In the area of advanced manufacturing, there’s a big skills gap.”
