With the support of data and artificial intelligence, the autonomy of robots has reached a new level, achieving adaptability in new environments.

With the support of data and artificial intelligence, the autonomy of robots has reached a new level, achieving adaptability in new environments. For example, ABB provides an AI-powered robotic welding quality inspection system that detects, discovers, and identifies defects as small as 22 microns at a speed 20 times faster than manual inspection; based on AI learning of evaluation standards, ABB's robot fault prediction accuracy can reach 99.9%, providing warnings 1 to 3 months in advance and achieving zero production interruptions; robots equipped with sensors and AI systems assist Schindler in drilling holes and installing anchor bolts in elevator shafts, significantly improving construction precision and operational safety; supported by 3D visual guidance and AI deep neural networks, ABB robots can quickly, efficiently, and accurately pick randomly placed workpieces, executing 1,400 picks per hour; applying 3D visual simultaneous localization and mapping (VSLAM) technology to autonomous mobile robots enables them to make intelligent navigation decisions based on their surrounding environment.

To meet the growing demand for AI-enabled robotic solutions, ABB is actively investing to expand production facilities and enhance AI innovation capabilities. A world-class robotic super factory has been established and put into operation in Shanghai, along with a new research and development center for artificial intelligence, digitalization, and software innovation; existing robotic factories in the United States and Sweden have been expanded to increase capacity and develop the next generation of artificial intelligence technologies.

ABB adopts a path that combines organic growth with mergers and acquisitions to promote the innovation and implementation of AI technology, building an AI application ecosystem. By investing in promising AI startup technology companies, ABB continuously expands new technologies, understands new industries, and explores new business models. In early 2024, ABB acquired the Swiss startup Sevensense to strengthen its leadership position in the next generation of AI autonomous mobile robots; it also acquired a majority stake in the R&D engineering company Meshmind to enhance its R&D capabilities in artificial intelligence, industrial IoT, and machine vision.
