en.Wedoany.com Reported - Teradyne Robotics, which includes Universal Robots and Mobile Industrial Robots, will showcase industrial automation applications based on Physical AI at Booth 1250 at Automate 2026 in Chicago from June 22 to 25. The booth will feature robotic systems designed for manufacturing and other environments with variable or less structured conditions.
According to Teradyne Robotics, the showcased applications are available through its system integrators and partners, including the MiR1200 Pallet Jack and other systems designed to automate tasks that are difficult or impossible for robots in dynamic environments. The core of the booth demonstrations is PolyScope X, the robot programming and system integration software platform from Universal Robots. This platform retains the company's existing motion control framework while updating the user experience with web technologies, containerized applications, and native ROS 2 support. PolyScope X introduces Logic Programs, continuously running multi-threaded programs that execute in parallel with the main robot program. These can be used to coordinate multiple work cell components, exchange data, and in some cases, reduce or eliminate the need for external PLCs. This logic can operate independently of safety stops, program pauses, and robot power states.
Teradyne Robotics' booth will feature live demonstrations every hour, showcasing how PolyScope X supports integration, cybersecurity, and AI-based development for robotic applications. The booth will highlight applications related to electronics manufacturing and AI data center infrastructure, including:
UR AI Trainer: An imitation learning platform developed in collaboration with Scale AI, allowing users to guide a UR robot through tasks such as smartphone packaging while capturing force data to train Vision-Language-Action models. The platform also supports integration with cloud services, including workflows for simulation, validation, and testing using the NVIDIA GR00T open-source VLA model and NVIDIA Isaac Sim.
Generalist: Two UR12e robots operate autonomously using Generalist's GEN-1 model, demonstrating dexterous manipulation tasks. This aims to showcase how robot foundation models can be combined with the Universal Robots platform for general physical tasks.
Cambrian: This demonstration uses a dual-arm UR7e robot and Cambrian's AI vision system to identify and insert copper cables into high-density server racks. The application targets tasks typically performed manually and prone to errors.
The booth will also include demonstrations from ecosystem partners, using UR robots and MiR autonomous mobile robots in industrial environments where parts, locations, or tasks may vary:
AICA: A UR7e robot executes learned trajectories based on human demonstrations through adaptive and force control. In the demonstration, the robot picks up a metal part and polishes it against a polishing wheel after a single demonstration.
beRobox (PALTZ) + MiR Mobility: The PALTZ palletizer uses AI vision to guide a UR20 robot in adjusting its grip when cardboard box orientations change. In the demonstration, the AI-enabled Pallet Jack and MiR600 work together with the beRobox palletizer for pallet retrieval, position exchange, and return to origin as part of a coordinated material flow.
Mobile cobot + ROEQ: A MiR250 equipped with a ROEQ conveyor transfers boxes to a conveyor belt, which moves the boxes to the end of the line. An MC250 mobile cobot picks them up, brings them back to the MiR250, and places them to repeat the process.
Maple Advanced Robotics Inc.: This spot finishing system uses a UR8L robot without requiring CAD models or manual teaching. The operator marks defects, and the system scans the surface and applies the selected finishing process.
Trener Robotics: Acteris is an AI-based platform with a conversational interface, allowing operators to deploy machine management tasks through natural language input. The demonstration uses a UR7e robot to execute assigned tasks.
Vention: Rapid Operator AI is a bin-picking system using a UR12e robot and 3D vision to identify and handle unstructured parts, enabling setup in a short time without traditional programming. For more information, visit teradyne.com/robotics/.
