Baxter Tours The Netherlands
Next week Active8 Robots will be taking Baxter across the Channel to visit Universities in The Netherlands to talk about the importance of robotics for research in Higher Education. We will be demonstrating how Baxter can be integrated within existing courses to provide students with practical experience as part of their course of study.
Baxter can give students the best possible training within their current field of study to equip them to deal with the next generation of requirements within the field of robotics. Recent research has estimated that by 2020 the service robotics market will be worth $19.41 Billion with double figure growth predicted annually.*
With the use of robotics increasing across the majority industries, Active8 Robots will also be demonstrating how Baxter provides a solution as a viable product for commercial implementation as well as a research and training product for Universities meaning that Baxter provides 2 solutions in 1!
