In the second half of this two-part Future Car Podcast episode, we continue our interview with William Santana Li, Chairman, and CEO of Knightscope – an advanced security technology company that makes fully autonomous security robots built to deter, detect and report.

Security robots patrol a specified area and raise the alarm whenever they spot something suspicious. But their biggest strength is that they can collect, store and analyze data as they patrol.

Smart, connected vehicles powered by AI represent a challenge and an opportunity for automakers. Fortunately, engineering time for robotic operations can be reduced by up to 80% when integrating the new software controller from Realtime Robotics and Tecnomatix Process Simulate software from Siemens.

Watch this webinar to discover how to simplify robot programming tasks in automotive manufacturing.

Robotics simulation and virtual commissioning
