ABB | Collaborative robot Yumi
Robots and people working together? This is already the reality of today, however there is a lot more going on here. The relative advantage of robots and intelligent machines is connected with their ability to endlessly and tirelessly perform a load of various movements and the ability to “think”. Will the technology outsmart us, or will we come out victorious? The feud between the soul of man and the matrix?
