OhmniLabs Showcases Latest Telerobotics Innovations At CEATEC 2019
TOKYO, Japan, Oct. 16, 2019 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

OhmniLabs, Inc, a leading robotics startup in Silicon Valley, is participating 
at the 2019 Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies (CEATEC), to be held 
from October 15 to 18 in Chiba, Japan. OhmniLabs is part of the "A City in 2030 
- Society 5.0 TOWN" exhibition and will be showcasing its innovative 
telerobotics technologies.

OhmniLabs will also be participating in ANA Holdings' exhibit as a partner for 
their groundbreaking ANA AVATAR project. With the mission to integrate multiple 
exponential technologies such as robotics, haptics, AR/VR, and AI to enable 
humanity to instantaneously teleport their presence to a remote location, ANA 
will be unveiling an all-new AVATAR robot "newme" to mark the next phase of the 
AVATAR project. Engineered and manufactured by OhmniLabs using our advanced 
additive manufacturing process and modular architecture, the new robot is 
specifically designed for the Japanese market based on years of ANA's extensive 
research and experience on connecting people across the globe.

Following the successful unveiling at the Consumer Electronic Show (CES) 2019 
in Las Vegas earlier this year, CEATEC 2019 will also be an opportunity for the 
public to interact with the Ohmni Cobot Arms. Made with an ultralight liquid 
crystal polymer cable drive and custom brushless motor controllers, the Ohmni 
Cobot project is focused on making the absolute lightest arms with human-scale 
payload capabilities. At CEATEC, OhmniLabs will introduce the second generation 
of the Ohmni Cobot Arms with an updated unibody shoulder, improved strength, 
and a 50% increase in motion speed. Powered by OhmniLabs' proprietary 
telepresence cloud technology, the arms can be teleoperated and trained for 
automated tasks from anywhere in the world, opening the door for future 
applications where humans can perform dangerous and heavy duty tasks from a 
distance. 

Speaking about OhmniLabs' participation at the event, Dr. Thuc Vu, Co-founder 
and CEO, said, "Our strategic partners in Japan have been instrumental in our 
growth, and attending CEATEC is an important step for us to showcase our 
expertise in robotics, AI, and additive manufacturing in the Japanese market. 
We are so grateful for ANA's support and partnership. The passion for 
connectivity regardless of distance is the reason why we started building 
telepresence robots at OhmniLabs, and we are excited to see the impact of this 
project on connecting humans across the globe."
