With predictions for 2018 leading to 30% of major cities becoming “smart cities” one company is ahead of the pack. Altizon, an industrial IIoT platform company, and Novecom, an environmental monitoring and data management systems provider, announced their new integrated smart IoT solution at the Newcastle 500 Supercar race in New South Wales, Australia. The system measures the decibel levels of race cars flying around the track and allowed Novecom to broadcast the results live. Smart cities can use this technology for monitoring road and traffic conditions in real time. Vinay Nathan, CEO of Altizon said, “Together with Novecom, Altizon is committed to be a trailblazer in establishing meaningful applications that make Smart Cities work.” The future of smart cities sound like they are just around the corner.

Case picking automation fails when nobody schedules the human

Case picking automation fails when nobody schedules the human

Vecna Robotics says conventional warehouse automation breaks at case picking because it schedules robots and not the people who lift the cases. Its CaseFlow system orchestrates both, builds exception reporting into the worker app and uses zone-based dispatch to keep robots from converging in one aisle. Robotics 24/7 wrote in October 2026 that Vecna reported a two times throughput gain and up to 90% less worker travel at a GEODIS deployment.

  • 01Vecna reported a two times throughput gain and up to 90% less worker travel at a GEODIS deployment, Robotics 24/7 wrote in October 2026.
  • 02Vecna says on its site that CaseFlow reads demand from the WMS in real time, which is what turns a robot platform into a case picking workflow.
  • 03Prime Robotics says on its own site that goods-to-person lifts productivity up to six times; Vecna says on its site it delivers two times or more with no fixed infrastructure and deployment in four weeks or less.

A3's final mobile robot safety standard is written for the sites running the robots

A3's final mobile robot safety standard is written for the sites running the robots

ANSI/A3 R15.08-3-2026 is now available from A3. It completes the three-part R15.08 series for industrial mobile robot (IMR) safety. Part 3 is written for the sites that run the robots. It covers risk assessment, management of change, employee training and periodic reviews and inspections, so safety work continues in day-to-day operation after deployment.

  • 01The robot maker documents the environment a mobile robot was built for, and Part 3 makes the operating site responsible for managing changes to the environment the robot actually works in.
  • 02Part 1 was reaffirmed in 2026 with no technical changes, while Part 3 spells out what users must do to operate IMR applications safely.
  • 03Sites running fixed cells and mobile robots may use one safety program, because R15.08-3 was written alongside R15.06 Part 3.

Schneider's $22.6 billion PTC deal is a bet on design data for industrial AI

Schneider's $22.6 billion PTC deal is a bet on design data for industrial AI

Schneider Electric is buying PTC for $22.6 billion in cash. It is betting PTC’s design and engineering data can help deploy industrial AI for manufacturers. The deal is expected to close by the third quarter of 2027, subject to approvals from PTC shareholders and regulators.

  • 01Schneider calls the combined business open and interoperable across systems. Buyers should test that promise.
