Humanoid robots are racing toward large-scale deployment, with shipment forecasts climbing and production costs dropping. However, behind the rapid progress lies a set of technical challenges that threaten to slow promised timelines. These challenges are not minor. There are significant hurdles to overcome moving from impressive demos to reliable and safe commercial products. In our newest blog, 𝗧𝗼𝗽 𝟱 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝗥𝗼𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀, Simplexity’s VP of Growth, Michael T., shares key issues that engineering teams are working to solve.

When your automation or robotics project outgrows the limitations of PLCs (programmable logic controllers), it’s time to consider a more flexible approach. With CODESYS, you can turn a standard Linux PC into a powerful, real-time Soft PLC capable of controlling EtherCAT devices over standard Ethernet cabling. In our latest blog, “𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮 𝗖𝗢𝗗𝗘𝗦𝗬𝗦 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗘𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗖𝗔𝗧 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀”, Senior Systems Engineer, Lewis Siempelkamp, walks you through every step—from starting a project in the CODESYS integrated development environment to live control of an EtherCAT device. Check out the tutorial including written descriptions and video demos! ➡️https://lnkd.in/et98Jeqm #CODESYS #EtherCAT #Robotics #Automation

What if there were a way to predict if a robotics or hardware company would be successful or ultimately fail? To help answer this question, we interviewed over a dozen robotics companies who had each raised at least $4M of funding and were in different points of their development journeys to gather common trends.

Engineers excel at solving technical problems, but attracting investment and scaling innovation also demands a compelling business case, market validation, and a clear growth strategy. In our latest blog, “𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗟𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗮𝗻 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿: 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗩𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴”, George Linscott, engineer, entrepreneur, and angel investor, shares a practical strategy for first-time robotics founders. Learn how to think like an investor by addressing three key risks: technical, market, and scale-up. The blog explores how to validate your technology with a minimum viable product (MVP), align with trends such as AI and collaborative robotics, and proactively navigate real-world constraints, including supply chain disruptions and regulatory hurdles.
