Abstract
New robotic applications are enabled through the interlocking of developments in both robotic hardware and software. Specialized software interfaces and addons are turning multifunctional robotic arms into highly specialized and optimized machines for a variety of applications. In parallel robots are continuously improved through new materials, gears, and motors, leading to a higher reliability, accuracy, and speed, all at a lower energy consumption.
