Due to the increasing use of robots in every field, the demand for robot programmers is also rising. Robot programming software company RoboDK, has launched a free online platform called RoboDK Academy, to help learners from any capacity, such as engineers, professionals, students and educators master industrial robot programming skills. The users can sign up and complete the courses in their own pace. The platform […] Read More

A rural primary school in Maharashtra has stepped into the future of STEM education with the launch of a Robotics and Industry 4.0 lab powered by RoboDK and SimuSoft Technologies (Pune). Supported by Bharat Forge Ltd. through its CSR initiative, the lab at Zilla Parishad School, Jalindarnagar is the first of its kind in a rural Indian primary school. Inaugurated in November 2025 by Dadaji […] Read More

Robot Operating System (ROS) is an open source, flexible software framework* used for building and controlling robots. Despite its name, ROS should not be confused with a traditional operating system because it runs on top of existing operating systems like Linux or Ubuntu. It does not replace an operating system; it only provides tools, conventions, and software libraries* for robot building and development. A robot […] Read More

Two of the most critical success factors in the manufacturing industry are time to deployment and cycle time. Despite this, the design and deployment of robotic workcells has long remained a surprisingly manual and time-consuming process. Realtime Robotics is aiming to change that with Resolver, a cloud-based optimization engine that introduces industrial-scale automation into the earliest stages of robotic system planning. At its core, Resolver […] Read More

In this post we will take a look at robot simulators and physics engines which should be discussed together. Robot Simulator: Basically a robot simulator is a computer program that facilitates building and testing of robots in a virtual environment. Some key points: Firstly, robot simulators help save great deal of time and money by elimination of physical prototypes and testing, at least during a […] Read More

To navigate its environment, a robot must be either remote controlled, preprogrammed in a known unchanging environment, or it must be able to do this autonomously. To be able to navigate autonomously a robot must be able to not only continuously model and update its environment, which can be static and dynamic, but also be able to determine the best path to take based on […] Read More

Scottsdale, AZ, October 6, 2017 – Roboteq, Inc (www.roboteq.com) introduces RoboAGVSim, a simulator that lets AGV designers program, test and fine tune their Automated Guided Vehicles in the comfort of their PC.  A video demonstration of the Simulator can be found at https://youtu.be/3r_vB-9433Q. A Magnetic track guided AGV can be built using only two Roboteq components: An MGS1600 magnetic guide sensor and any Roboteq Dual Channel […] Read More
