SEPnet Students Making an Impact
The future of scientific innovation and furtherment in the UK is the development of our students, and i3D robotics is committed to being part of the drive to support the future. As such, we're part of the South East Physics Network (SEPnet), a collaboration between several universities in southeast England [...]
Stereo Vision providing the eyes for construction sector
i3D robotics is part of a consortium aiming to demonstrate the real-life benefits of using robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) to automate the installation of mechanical and electrical services within a tunnel environment. The project is known as A-TRIS – Automated Tunnel Robotic Installation System. Modern tunnel construction uses automated [...]
Robots to the Rescue – A Battlefield Breakthrough
Robots have long been integrated with various sensors and systems and deployed in conflict areas, for example, sweeping for hidden explosive devices, monitoring air quality and explosives investigations, and removing human (and canine!) operators from the equation in the process. Now, as part of a project to develop a complete [...]
i3Dr – Changing the Game in Nuclear Decommissioning
The Sellafield nuclear facility in Cumbria presents the largest and most intricate decommissioning challenge of our time. Aerial view of the Sellafield nuclear site. By Simon Ledingham Home to the UK’s first-generation nuclear reactors, the site was the focus of plutonium production for nuclear weapons, the [...]
i3Dr Unity Integration
As part of the Stereo Theatre project, i3Dr is integrating our high-resolution stereo camera system and propriety stereo matching algorithm into the Unity game engine. This will allow us to render detailed 3D information of a patient in an operating theatre in real-time for use in virtual reality [...]
INTELLIGENT ROBOTICS -TRANSFORMING THE FOUNDATION INDUSTRIES
Stereo vision specialists, i3D robotics, has won funding to develop existing intelligent robotic systems to improve production process within the energy-intensive foundation industries. The funding is part of the Government’s Fast Start competition under The Transforming Foundation Industries (TFI) programme, overseen by Innovate UK, part of UK Research and Innovation, for the Intelligent [...]
i3Dr WINS FUNDING TO DEVELOP A SURGICAL OPERATION SIMULATOR
i3D robotics has won funding to develop a virtual-reality training platform to enable medical students to upskill remotely and perform simulation surgeries. The funding is part of the Government’s Fast Start competition with the successful projects being overseen by Innovate UK, part of UK Research and Innovation. The Stereo Theatre project addresses the [...]
COLLABORATIVE CODING DURING COVID-19
During the COVID-19 period of social distancing, i3Dr has been looking at different ways to leverage technologies so we may continue to operate, design and test the equipment involved in our various projects. For many projects, multiple colleagues are required to work on different sections of a piece of [...]
OUT OF ADVERSITY….
Out of adversity comes opportunity – Benjamin Franklin 4-weeks ago COVID challenged all of us and changed how all of us work. It is unlikely, in many cases, we shall see a return to the way we were working. That is not necessarily a bad thing and what COVID-19 [...]
