Automation may seem to be here already, but we are only at the early stages.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eAutomation and Collaborative Robotics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e explores the output of current research projects that are improving the building blocks of an automated world. Research into collaborative robotics (cobotics) is merging digital, audio, and visual data to generate a commonly held view between cobots and their human collaborators. Low-power machine learning at the edge of the network can deliver decision making on cobots or to their manipulations.
