Apollo humanoid robots join the Mercedes-Benz assembly line

Posted by in categories: health, robotics/AI

Mercedes-Benz has officially employed humanoid robots to complete manual tasks on its assembly line. Apptronik’s Apollo robot will complete simple tasks like fetching and carrying, helping lighten the load for its human colleagues.

Announced on Friday, March 15, the robots will also be employed to complete other “low skill” tasks like basic assembly. This will free up human workers to focus on more important tasks and reduce the risk of repetitive strain injuries and other health and safety issues related to manual tasks.

800-mile neutrino beam probes Earth in DUNE experiment

Posted by in categories: cosmology, particle physics

Scientists are eager to tackle perplexing questions using DUNE, such as the mystery of why the universe is made of matter and how black holes arise from exploding stars.

Moreover, they want to understand the potential connections between neutrinos, dark matter, and other yet-to-be-discovered particles.

These caverns will soon be home to four large neutrino detectors, each the size of a seven-story building.
