Andreas Bihlmaier talks about modular robotics and starting a robotics company. Host: Per Sjöborg, Robots in Depth #38 supported by https://carbon.ai and http://www.aptomica.com
Andreas shares how he started out in computers and later felt that robotics, through its combination of software and hardware that interacts with the world, was what he found most interesting.
Andreas is one of the founders of RoboDev, a company that aims to make automation more available using modular robotics. He explains how modular systems are especially well suited for automating low volume series and how they work with customers to simplify automation.
He also discusses how a system that can easily be assembled into many different robots creates an advantage both in education and in industrial automation, by providing efficiency, flexibility and speed.
Reducing the threshold to automation will allow a new type of exploration of robotics and automation in STEM/STEAM education and in prototyping for industrial robotics.
We get a personal, behind the scenes account of how the company has evolved as well as insights into the reasoning behind strategic choices made in product development.
