Professor Mark J. Perry's Blog for Economics and Finance
Adept Technology has just broken the “300 cycle per minute barrier” with their Quattro robot. The secret, they say, is that using four arms instead of three enables higher speeds and faster accelerations. If you want to see what 300 cycles per minute looks like, pay attention at about 1:30 in the video and remind yourself that you’re not watching it on super fast forward.
Dr. Mark J. Perry is a professor of economics and finance in the School of Management at the Flint campus of the University of Michigan. Perry holds two graduate degrees in economics (M.A. and Ph.D.) from George Mason University near Washington, D.C. In addition, he holds an MBA degree in finance from the Curtis L.
