Factories of the Future

Imagine the factory of the future where robots can quickly adapt and change in order to manufacture different items, or handle a multitude of tasks, and all at the press of a button.  A world where such capabilities will transform industries.  But these aren’t just the dreams of tomorrow because they’re already here today. Episode two of this series takes you on a behind-the-scenes ‘audio journey’ through ABB’s state of-the-art robotics mega factory to reveal the exciting work going on there.   Science host Fran Scott explores the power of robots and AI in industry and joining her are Marc Segura, President of ABB’s Robotics Division and Futurist and keynote speaker Jim Carroll who’ll be predicting where we could go from here. Part of the ABB Decoded Series, The Robot Podcast is a Fresh Air Production by Graham Seaman and Izzie Clarke.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
