World leading companies wage the war of the robots, here is more news from the world of robotics.
Michigan-based Fanuc Robotics claims to have developed a robot stronger than the KUKA Titan, which has been regarded as the world's strongest to date. The firm has named the new robot M-2000iA/1,200.
Both the Titan and the M-2000iA posses artificial intelligence systems and
sensors that enable them to make independent decisions. The two robots were originally designed to lift and position machinery for spot welding, assembly, and other industrial functions.

Both of them have six axes: three move the robot arm, and three manipulate whatever object the "hand" is holding. Their creators describe their six axes as equivalent to a human waist, shoulder, elbow, wrist and fingers.
The Titan obtains its strength from the nine motors that enable it to lift nearly a ton of metal more than 13 feet into the air. However, the new M-2000iA robot can raise 2,645 pounds 20 feet into the air. Its makers have also equipped it with video cameras and touch-sensitive "fingers".
