With Plato, United Robotics Group is introducing a new generation of service robots, or "cobiots," to support people across multiple industries and respond to the unique challenges of the changing workforce. The first-of-its-kind social-mobile robot follows industrial safety standards and no programming is required.
"The first generation of robots, classic, large industrial robots, were programmed to work independently from humans. With the second generation, small, lightweight cobots, collaboration with humans was possible. With CobiotX, we are completely revolutionizing the way humans interact with robots, allowing humans to focus on highly valued human interaction while ensuring a safe environment," said Thomas Hähn, Founder of United Robotics Group, in a press release.
Plato is poised to help humans across all industries, not just manufacturing and logistics.
