Company Performance Metrics
- Steven Scanlan: Robotics Design Inc.
Robotics Design Inc. is an innovative Canadian company dedicated to the design and development of robotic, electrical and mechanical systems to resolve complex industrial challenges faced by manufacturers worldwide.
Robotics Design is a pioneer in the field of modular robotics, and was established with the release of ANAT (Articulated Nimble
Adaptable Trunk), a ground-breaking robotic technology. It has given birth to a family of robots which serve the duct cleaning and industrial manipulating markets. This technology allows virtually any robotic system to be formed from identical modules, and allows the modules to be reconfigured to form a different robot to perform another application. ANAT technology simplifies and reduces the cost of manufacturing and repairing robots, while increasing their structural durability and dexterity.
Robotics Design has earned numerous awards for its products including: - Gold medal at the 31st international exhibition of inventions in Geneva in 2000 for the ANATERGOARM AEA-15, which was also a finalist in the 2003 IDM awards. - The BIXI public bike system, which Robotics Design created the bike dock for, earned 19th best invention of 2008 by TIME magazine, as well as a gold Edison award for energy and sustainability. - ANAT technology was a certified nominee for the 2010 Manning Innovation Awards. - The ANATERGOARM TMA-500 won the "Work Health and Safety" award at the 21st exhibition of the innovation awards by ADRIQ and its partners.
