Reframe Systems, the Massachusetts-based physical AI company innovating homebuilding with robotic microfactories, has partnered with Cabot, Cabot & Forbes (CC&F), a specialist in transit-oriented development for Greater Boston’s new economy workers, to deploy a Reframe unit as the on-site marketing and sales office for The Bolt, a 180,000 SF innovation and manufacturing center currently under […]
GMEX Robotics, a developer of AI-powered robotic technologies, says it is advancing the development and integration of its “Intelligent Robot Chassis”, which the company describes as “a key innovation designed to enhance the resilience, mobility, and operational safety of autonomous robots across industries”. In connection with this technological advancement, GMEX is in the process of […]
The narrative in modern manufacturing often centers on the cutting edge: AI-driven robotics, hyper-connected IIoT ecosystems, and autonomous logistics. While this rapid innovation drives the industry forward, it creates a stark contrast with the reality on the factory floor. In many facilities, the backbone of production remains robust, reliable hardware that has been running effectively […]
Researchers at Tsinghua University developed the Optical Feature Extraction Engine (OFE2), an optical engine that processes data at 12.5 GHz using light rather than electricity. Its integrated diffraction and data preparation modules enable unprecedented speed and efficiency for AI tasks. Demonstrations in imaging and trading showed improved accuracy, lower latency, and reduced power demand. This innovation pushes optical computing toward real-world, high-performance AI.
Researchers at Columbia have created a chip that turns a single laser into a “frequency comb,” producing dozens of powerful light channels at once. Using a special locking mechanism to clean messy laser light, the team achieved lab-grade precision on a small silicon device. This could drastically improve data center efficiency and fuel innovations in sensing, quantum tech, and LiDAR.
