Editorial
A force multiplier for VGRs Vision-guided robots (VGRs) first emerged in the late 1980s. Since the turn of the century, however, adoption has taken off, due in large part to a decrease in the cost and to the smaller footprints of the systems, along with interest from key industries such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, automotive, and manufacturing. According to a recently published market forecast by Fact.MR, the...
