Case Studies
Computer scientists enhance robotic manufacturing
Some industrial robots are hulking, highly specialised pieces of machinery that are cordoned off by cages from human factory workers, but manufacturers have also begun experimenting with a new generation of 'cobots' designed to work side by side with humans.

Qenos makes a step change with adaptive process control
The most critical shortcoming of current advanced control systems, as used by most larger process plants, specifically refineries and chemical manufacturers, is that as the plant ages and feedstock characteristics change, the as-built control model loses fidelity, resulting in inefficiencies and substandard output product.
[ + ]Anti-collision systems ensure safe container-terminal operations
Container terminals operate on a 24/7 basis, so the demand on availability is extremely high. Collisions involving the boom of ship-to-shore cranes and the ships themselves pose the greatest risk in daily operations. [ + ]
