Hexagon begins training AEON humanoid at Schaeffler factory
Hexagon Robotics announced that it has begun training its AEON humanoid at a Schaeffler factory.
What happened
According to Robotics and Automation News, Hexagon Robotics has begun training its AEON humanoid at a “Humanoid Gym” set up at a Schaeffler factory in Germany.
Why it matters
At Schaeffler’s factory, AEON will learn by repeatedly performing real production tasks such as loading and unloading parts and inspections. This allows the factory to test motions for new tasks in a real-world environment. Published materials also say the aim is to build in-house knowledge needed to operate and train the robot and integrate it into production.
