OPINION - Hexagon's AEON humanoid robot for industry is here ...Tech & Science Daily podcast

Listen here on your chosen podcast platform.

With the help of Nvidia, Hexagon, a leading global robotics, AI, automation and measurement technology company, has revealed its humanoid robot, AEON.

The humanoid has been designed to support the automotive, aerospace, transportation, and warehousing industries, safely without direct supervision.

The Tower of London and Central Park are part of five sites to join a Cultivating Resilience programme.

As part of the programme, the sites will receive climate modelling, planning resources and technical support to tackle climate-related threats, such as flooding, drought, biodiversity loss, and extreme weather.

Tech & Science Daily spoke with Meredith Wiggins, the senior director of climate adaptation at the World Monuments Fund.

Meredith told the podcast that the Tower of London will reintroduce ​water ​to its moat, as well as special ​species ​that can withstand ​droughts ​and flooding, which ​are ​likely ​to ​happen in the future.
