Regular readers of our blogs will know that, here at Warley Design, we have a particular penchant for charting the latest developments in artificial intelligence and robot design. Bearing this in mind, we thought we would share one of our favourite videos of the year featuring the most recent creation to come out of Boston
One buzzword that is being used with increasing frequency of late is Industry 4.0. It’s a term that is being talked about widely in engineering and manufacturing circles as the fourth industrial revolution. But what does it refer to and what are its implications? To explain Industry 4.0, a brief history lesson is helpful. The
As the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology continues apace, fears have been expressed about what a future where robots are common place might look like. One concern is that jobs currently carried out by people might, in the not too distant future, be done by computers. According to a study by researchers at Oxford
We have written before on how nature and its designs have guided the development of man-made technologies down the ages. As designers and engineers, it’s a theme that we are fascinated by and one we continuously revisit. One particularly riveting area is the wealth of inspiration, clever design and raw material offered to the human
It seems that we have an insatiable thirst for hi-tech gadgets. Many of us are at a point whereby they are critical to our work, our leisure pursuits and to our social interaction. Modern life as we know it would come to a standstill without them. The problem is that the current array of battery
