Guard-free Robotics at the Assembly Technology Expo

You don't usually see robots running in the middle of a trade-show floor without some sort of physical guarding to protect the innocent passerby from a robotic beat down. But here at the Assembly Technology Expo, Pilz demonstrated it's "Safety Eye" system, which uses a 3D vision system to create a protective barrier around the robot. When a person enters the system's outer protective zone, the robot slows down. Get closer and enter the inner zone, and the robot stops entirely. No guarding required.
