The AI Seminar is a weekly meeting at the University of Alberta where researchers interested in artificial intelligence (AI) can share their research. Presenters include both local speakers from the University of Alberta and visitors from other institutions. Topics can be related in any way to artificial intelligence, from foundational theoretical work to innovative applications of AI techniques to new fields and problems.
On August 4, Faheem Khan, CEO of ARO Robotics, presented "AI and autonomy-based multitasking robots for Industry 4.0" at the AI Seminar.
Abstract:
Industrial environments, such as manufacturing and warehousing, are quickly becoming complex. There are various manual and repetitive tasks which, if not automated, will drastically impact the company's operational efficiency. At Aro, we have developed a novel technology of AI-based multitasking robots. These robots are autonomous and, unlike competitors, can perform more than one task. They heavily rely on various aspects of AI to make real-time decisions.
