When discussing AI and robotics, our first response is to imagine how this technology will one day replace human interaction. My guest this week, however, discusses how their company is using robotics to better facilitate it. This week I welcome Jared Go, co-founder of the Robot development company Ohminlabs, a company that is building all... The post 3D Printing, AI and the Development of the Ohmni Robot – Interview with Jared Go of Ohmnilabs appeared first on Composites Weekly.

On this week's episode, we’re going to be discussing 3D printing as it related to the area of Robotics. 

Jared Go, Co-founder of the Robot development company Ohminlabs joins me today on the show. 

OhmniLabs isn’t interested in replacing human interaction, however – they want to use robotics to better facilitate it. 

When the company was  founded back in 2015, their main goal was to reinvent the traditional robotics development process. 

The co-founders, Jared Go, Tingxi Tan and serial entrepreneur Thuc Vu, are robotics experts from Carnegie Mellon and Stanford who believe that personal consumer robots can make a positive impact on people’s everyday lives. 

They have extensive experience in AI, machine learning, multi-agent systems, industrial design, mechanical & electrical engineering and cloud infrastructure. You can find out more about their company by visiting https://ohmnilabs.com/.

Jared is an Avid maker and roboticist & previous CTO and founding member at networks startup.  He has extensive experience in software, AI, real-time graphics, VR, mechanical engineering and electrical engineering. 

With growing concerns about the impact of tariffs on steel and aluminum, many are questioning what the impact will be in the composites industry. Already tariffs are causing concern across some supply chains, causing “panic buying” of raw materials, which has led to an increase in prices. However, experts like Srikanth Pilla, director of Clemson University’s... The post How Will Tariffs Impact Composite Manufacturers? appeared first on Composites Weekly.

This week, we welcome Kevin Williams, a trade law attorney, on the show to discuss tariffs and how they could affect us composites manufacturers. 

Kevin practices Customs and International Trade Law focusing on all aspects of the import and export process. Kevin also advises clients on export licensing and develops comprehensive import and export compliance programs.
