World’s fastest industrial robot makes human workers useless

March 26, 2008 by admin | 1 comment

After seeing the ABB Flexpicker in action, I have no doubt that one day, human workers will be pretty much useless in factories. This robot is apparently the fastest in the world, its arm going from 0 to 280 mph in barely 1 second.

Yeah someday factories will be like the ones from I, Robot, where robots build other robots and take themselves in for repairs. Hopefully they wont go crazy and will smith will have to hunt them down.
