Robotics and the pandemic

July 28, 2022 @ 7:20 am - 9:00 am PDT

Due the pandemic, robotics is no longer just a technology that companies use to improve their ROI, but something they must implement to keep their businesses afloat. What is happening in the forefront of robotics in factories, warehouses and hospitals worldwide? And what is still difficult for robots to do and why?

This presentation will try to answer these questions to open up a dialogue on how we see the future of people and robots working together.
