Video: The Rise of Maintenance Robots
In our second video for the Special Report on Robotics, Tim Westhoven from ExxonMobil and John Grimes from ASME describe the near future of maintenance robots. Where will the upcoming maintenance robots be deployed?
For example, 57 Degrees, a QL Tech division, has developed RoboCoat, an intelligent autonomous surface perpetration and coating robot. The AI enabled maintenance robots can work in complex unstructured environments, such as chemical plants or offshore platforms, and react to real-time changes in their surroundings. The key to their success lies in the autonomy.
