Robots in the wild. Path to lights-out. War games and advanced manufacturing. Roll your own 3D printer. New metals.
Episode 127: Ben and Steve both have some testbed updates and conclude that having a solid in-house IT team on hand is vital for implementing new OT (operational technology) systems. The tech friends lighten things up by reflecting on their Thanksgiving.
Episode 126: Steve immediately kicks it off with a listicle regarding the ten most disruptive 3D printers in history. The tech friends then discuss augmented reality glasses. Steve also reports that Georgia Tech has a replica of the AMT testbed.
The ARM Institute held a panel discussion on the challenges and opportunities for automation in aerospace manufacturing. They tackled efficiency and production; economic, technical, and human challenges; management support; workforce development; and more.
Episode 125: The testbed has a new computer, and it was built in-house! The tech friends discuss and the death of door-to-door trick-or-treating. Elissa reports on Hershey’s multi-million dollar investment in supply chain development.
Episode 124: It’s been a minute since IMTS 2024 and the last formal episode, so the Tech Friends kick things off with a lively discussion over… wait, Steve kicks things off with a testbed update! Ben talks about inspection.
Come on - do more. What to fix first? The future of computing. They can open doors. Do digital twins take smoke breaks?
Thanks, AI. Are exoskeletons real? 3D printing in space is EZ. Trust me: Don't trust me. How do we get parts that don't exist anymore?
Episode 123: The Tech Friends start with a lively discussion over EVs versus hybrids and battery alternatives such as capacitors, flywheels, and hydrogen. Elissa says NASA is sending gardeners to space. Ben thinks mobile robots need more computers.
Episode 122: The Tech Friends are ready for IMTS 2024 and can’t wait to be back in Chicago. Stephen has evolved into a roboticist, at least he thinks he has. Benjamin and Steve discuss the full speed ahead popularity in humanoid robotics.
