Join us each week for discussions with leading roboticists, innovative robotics companies, and other key members of the robotics community.<\/p>\n<p>Mike talks to Black-i Robotics founder and CEO Brian Hart, to discuss the introduction of the new Black-i Fullscope Mobile Heavy Lift Arm. This new robotics solution is designed to be mounted on top of an AMR\/AGV and deployed in a warehouse to autonomously pick up\/drop off heavy items. The robotic arm is being shown publicly for the first time at MODEX in Atlanta next week.<\/p>\n<p>Steve and Mike also discuss the latest news stories from the last week.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s is a video of the new product:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Black I Robotics Introducing Fullscope Mobile Heavy Lift Arm\" width=\"740\"
