商品描述

Understand the current and future research into technologies that underpin the increasing capabilities of automation technologies and their impact on the working world of the future.

Rapid advances in automation and robotics technologies are often reported in the trade and general media, often relying on scary headlines such as "Jobs Lost to Robots." It is certainly true that work will change with the advent of smarter and faster automated workers; however, the scope and scale of the changes is still unknown. Automation may seem to be here already, but we are only at the early stages.

Automation and Collaborative Robotics explores the output of current research projects that are improving the building blocks of an automated world. Research into collaborative robotics (cobotics) is merging digital, audio, and visual data to generate a commonly held view between cobots and their human collaborators. Low-power machine learning at the edge of the network can deliver decision making on cobots or to their manipulations. Topics covered in this book include:

 

  • Robotic process automation, chatbots, and their impact in the near future
  • The hype of automation and headlines leading to concerns over the future of work
  • Component technologies that are still in the research labs
  • Foundational technologies and collaboration that will enable many tasks to be automated with human workers being re-skilled and displaced rather than replaced

 

 

 

 

What You Will Learn

 

  • Be aware of the technologies currently being researched to improve or deliver automation
  • Understand the impact of robotics, other automation technologies, and the impact of AI on automation
  • Get an idea of how far we are from implementation of an automated future
  • Know what work will look like in the future with the deployment of these technologies

 

 

Who This Book Is For

Technical and business managers interested in the future of automation and robotics, and the impact it will have on their organizations, customers, and the business world in general

商品描述(中文翻譯)

了解當前及未來有關支撐自動化技術日益增強能力的研究,以及這些技術對未來工作世界的影響。

自動化和機器人技術的快速進步經常在行業和一般媒體中報導,通常依賴於如「工作被機器人取代」等令人恐懼的標題。確實,隨著更智能和更快速的自動化工作者的出現,工作將會改變;然而,這些變化的範圍和規模仍然未知。自動化似乎已經來臨,但我們仍然處於早期階段。

自動化與協作機器人 探討了當前研究項目的成果,這些研究正在改善自動化世界的基礎組件。對協作機器人(cobotics)的研究正在融合數位、音頻和視覺數據,以生成機器人和人類合作者之間的共同視角。邊緣計算中的低功耗機器學習可以為機器人或其操作提供決策支持。本書涵蓋的主題包括:

 


  • 機器人流程自動化、聊天機器人及其在不久的將來的影響

  • 自動化的炒作及其引發的對未來工作的擔憂

  • 仍在研究實驗室中的組件技術

  • 基礎技術和協作,將使許多任務能夠自動化,而人類工作者將被重新技能培訓和重新安置,而非被取代

 

 

 

 

您將學到什麼

 


  • 了解目前正在研究的技術,以改善或實現自動化

  • 理解機器人技術、其他自動化技術及人工智慧對自動化的影響

  • 了解我們距離實現自動化未來的距離

  • 知道這些技術部署後,未來的工作將會是什麼樣子

 

 

本書適合誰閱讀

對自動化和機器人的未來感興趣的技術和商業管理者,以及這將對他們的組織、客戶和商業世界產生的影響

作者簡介

Peter Matthews has more than 40 years of experience in IT business and has always looked to the future when working in CA's corporate strategy teams. He is currently co-leading the COBOTICS research project for the NSF Centre for Visual and Decision Informatics and contributes to the ALOHA and ENACT projects as part of the CA team, funded by the EU Commission's Framework Programs. He represents CA on the Big Data Value Association AI working group, a public and private association supported by the EU Directorate General. He has an MSc in social media analytics and has worked with early stage AI tools for 18 years. Part of his role at CA has included presenting on the future of work to school children as part of CA's STEM initiative.

Dr. Steven Greenspan is an innovator and scientist in information and communications technology (ICT) and is a co-author on over 60 utility patents and many peer-reviewed papers in ICT and cognitive psychology. As Distinguished Member of the Technical Staff at AT&T Bell Laboratories and AT&T Labs and Vice President and Research Scientist at CA Technologies, he has been exploring the opportunities and technical challenges created by new and emerging ICT technologies for over 25 years. His current research portfolio includes differential privacy, IoT trustworthiness, AI ethics, and collaborative robotics, and he is the CA representative on the Industrial Advisory Board for the NSF UICRC Center for Visual and Decision Informatics. He has a PhD in experimental (cognitive) psychology from SUNY Buffalo. His postdoctoral research at UC San Diego and Indiana University focused on user experience, psycholinguistics, and speech perception. He is a co-editor of the book, Applied Speech Technology.
