Cobots use vision and ranging sensors to locate and inspect objects, force/torque sensing to guide assembly and finishing, and MEMS sensors to track joint and gearbox condition for predictive maintenance. Vision and sensor processing are areas of particular ST strength, from FlightSense time-of-flight and global-shutter imaging to in-sensor intelligence that runs analytics inside the sensor itself. Edge AI processes data on the device, allowing local perception and decision-making for faster reaction and stronger data security.
