This is real time. You can see how stable the motion is. A system placing droplets between 1 nanoliter and 1 microliter inside a 96 well plate with almost perfect repeatability. No shake. No drift. No overshoot. The robot keeps the tip on track even at this scale where tiny vibrations normally ruin the result. Why this matters: •In wet lab automation, volume accuracy is everything •Nano scale tasks fail fast if the robot is even slightly off •Reliable deposition unlocks fast screening and repeatable experiments •You can run full workflows without manual checking or correction This is the kind of precision that turns lab robots from “helpful tool” into a full automation pipeline.

Welcome to the pico world! 🔬 Micro-dispensing at the picoliter scale is incredible when you compare it to everyday numbers: a single raindrop is about 50 microliters, roughly 50 million times larger than a picoliter. Being able to place droplets this small without touching the surface is key for biotech, diagnostics, and micro-electronics, where tiny volumes matter. And at this scale, two basics become critical: → Accuracy = how close you are to the real value. → Precision = how repeatable each droplet is. I could watch it all day long! ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

This robot is playing Tetris! 🧊 AGILOX dropped something exciting at LogiMAT. One of the most requested robot use cases finally automated: Manual truck loading. What I'm really impressed of is the high precision positioning of pallets directly next to the truck or container wall. It's 2026 and I love that fact that AMR companies are not just moving goods from A to B anymore, but they innovate and look for more value-adding tasks across logistics sites and manufacturing plants! ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

The world's smallest industrial robot arm Built for sub-micrometer precision. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at how to control what is likely the world’s smallest and most precise industrial robot arm using custom software. The stack includes online and offline programming with simulation, an analytical kinematics solver, a singularity-aware trajectory planner, and an API layer for integration with external systems. It’s designed for applications where positioning error is measured in micrometers, not millimeters. Microelectronics, semiconductor handling, photonics alignment, medical device assembly, lab automation. When parts are tiny and tolerances are unforgiving, the control architecture matters as much as the mechanics. This is from Oleksander Stepanenko (Oleksandr Stepanenko), if you don’t follow him and his YouTube channel… no one can help you. ——- Weekly robotics and AI insights. Subscribe free:

Brain-controlled exoskeletons to train humanoid robots! 🧠 Fourier just presented human tele-operators using brain control interfaces and exoskeletal arms to train humanoid robots on home tasks. The brain control interface is the interesting part. Instead of using a controller or joystick to teleoperate, the operator's movements and intentions are captured more naturally through the exoskeleton and BCI. This means the demonstrations are more fluid, more human-like, and better suited for training robots to perform delicate home tasks. Multiple tele-operators are simultaneously generating training data across multiple robots. This is how you build the dataset needed for eventual full autonomy, without waiting years for it to arrive. This might be the bridge between "robots that work in controlled environments" and "robots that work in homes." Not full autonomy right away, but trusted human intelligence operating through a robot body, getting better with every task completed. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Robotics is entering the mainstream! 👀 Let's accept this fact. Consumptionism – stonks. Possibilities (HW + SW) – stonks. Demographics - not stonks. Modern robots are often designed to interact with our legacy world, whether it's a household, a factory, or a shipyard. That means they often need to work with existing machines, tools, and spaces. In short: retrofitting. Improving old machines with new technologies without major interference in their operation. Modern way of integrating things. You don't have to change the entire environment to deploy a robot. The robot will adapt, just as human would when freshly hired. The promise is to have an army of robots to help with the world designed for us. I also believe that general purpose robots, are not a direct competition for single purpose machines (like a highly efficient specialized packaging machine, for example). It's like adding a robot to this carriage. Specialized machine could be a car ;) ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

The robot is learning several novel tasks instantly, after just ONE demonstration each... Instant Policy makes it possible: no extra training, no weight updates, just pure in-context learning. It just got accepted at ICLR 2025, and it’s changing how robots learn. With just a single demo, a robot can pick up a new task and start performing it right away. Why this is a big deal: ✅ Learns tasks instantly with just one or a few demonstrations ✅ Improves over time as more demonstrations are given ✅ Uses simulation-based training with “pseudo-demonstrations” for scalability ✅ Can transfer skills across different robots and even follow language-defined tasks It brings in-context learning to robotics, opening up new possibilities for flexible, real-world automation. You can try it yourself: code and weights are available at • • • • Thank you to Edward Johns, Director of the Robot Learning Lab at Imperial College for sharing their work! 🙏

Modern manufacturing robots are far more precise than they look. A six-axis industrial robot can move a tool through several metres of space and repeatedly bring it back to within a few hundredths of a millimetre. Some precision oriented systems achieve repeatability of around 0.02-0.05 mm. That precision is one reason mass manufacturing looks the way it does today. A car body can move through a factory floor while robots weld the same points, drill the same holes and paint complex surfaces with almost identical movements, thousands of times over. The first industrial robots entered factories in the early 1960s, mostly doing repetitive and dangerous work. Sixty years later, they can repeat precise movements thousands of times with a consistency that humans simply cannot maintain at industrial scale.

Robots moving railcars! 🚃 Did you know that KUKA is also in the mobile robots business? Yes, you heard that right. And not just any robots. Robots that carry up to 56 tons! 🏋🏼 The railcar production process is highly complex, particularly when moving massive cars sideways within a plant. This challenge has been addressed at the Siemens facility in Germany using the OmniMove system from KUKA. The system allows for precise positioning, enabling the units to lift, move, and lower railcars with remarkable accuracy. With Mecanum wheels, the OmniMove units can move seamlessly in any direction, making the process incredibly efficient. Together, these units are capable of lifting up to 56 tons, streamlining heavy railcar production. This one is clearly tele-operated, but just looking at it makes me feel safer when I see a human in the loop. What a great use case for mobile robots! 😮‍💨 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →
