As robotics makes rapid advances in industrial automation, some challenges still stand in the way of increased adoption. These include human-oriented interaction, and multifunctionality. To address flexible manufacturing, robots must perform multiple operations, and be able to reconfigure seamlessly, all while equipment is tethered by wires and connectors. An array of solutions to address these challenges has been developed by ADI, including wireless communication modules.
