Yes, Giant Robots. When you lay your eyes on them, it feels like we are watching something that is not real at the same time unbelievable. When we talk about Giant Robots, the very first word that hits our brain is Mecha – Robots or machines (mechs) controlled by people.

We have been watching these robots in Japanese video games since our childhood. There are giant human-piloted combat robots already made in America for small fighting leagues.

Does building Giant Robots make sense from an engineering perspective?

Machines have already populated our world, but to depend on them we need better understanding and advancements to make them more self-efficient. And here the role of Artificial Intelligence takes place – to assemble applications, help robots to learn its own.

The world’s largest 60 feet humanoid robot is currently under process in Yokohama, Japan.

Requirements to build Giant Robots

1. For massive machines, the amount of energy required will be exponentially huge that may include nuclear reactors or any other powerful energy resources.
2. Strong but lightweight and durable material to provide the desired balance of strength and flexibility.
3. Robots should be able to walk, run, and possess other skill sets of humans and animals. So Pedestrian problems are the most challenging ability to replicate in robots.

We know already that machines or robots are going to have an important role in our lives and so we have to think about how to handle them responsibly so that we can welcome them among us as a whole new species.

Humankind has worst-hit by a Pandemic of this century. It has not only affected the health but also posed a threat to the Global Economy. The complete lock-down has been imposed to tackle the situation and for all of us, it was difficult to predict whose job will be safe and who’s not.

Because of the shutdowns, the employees have told to work from homes and it is likely not possible to go back to work anytime soon. Several tech companies are working in a different unusual fashion to survive this pandemic.

Yes, fairly!

We have been preparing for this in advance

While the COVID-19 outbreak has caused uncertainty, we have started taking the essential steps in the beginning to ensure employee safety and health. Here are some of our powers that helped us function normal during this outbreak:

Setting Goals

Whether we are working from home or not, every business requires setting up goals to be able to become successful. No one has expected any global pandemic that will force the world to slow down. And so setting goals has always helped our people finish tasks in the time frame and help them remain motivated.

Regular Remote Team Meetings

Distributed teams are the new way of working in this COVID-19 situation. Almost all businesses have discovered functioning remotely and to make it work properly as well as productively, regular team meetings are necessary. And in this changed scenario, we are handling our teams regularly by having one and one meetings with each of our employees.

Team meetings have become part of our new schedule to track the progress, solve the issue our people are facing, and setting up new goals.

Effective Communication

We believe in over-communication rather than under-communication in order to do things effectively. It is always necessary to communicate with your people about individual goals and tasks to ensure everything is on track and all are focused.

To keep things running with employees and clients in this difficult situation is hard and so talk to you people.

We Maintain Professional Ethics

A sudden shift in working conditions has completely changed how we used to work considering professional ethics and to have the same feel during this WFH time, we are handling work matters, taking responsibility for each and every employee’s action by communicating often over video calls and chats.

Go the Extra Mile

This outbreak has changed everything for everyone overnight and our main concern was keeping our people as safe as possible. And through every means available we are running our business, going extra miles to save our people, their mental health by boosting their morale, and reaching out for the help of they need.

We don’t know how the future will be because of the uncertainties we are facing daily. But we will protect our people and at the same time run our business like before.

We are experiencing many changes from the last few months. This pandemic has not only changed our way of living but also changed the complete sociology of work.

COVID-19 and Digital Transformation?

The use of digital technologies is not a new thing, especially in the time of crisis. Businesses and society are adapting this new change on a large scale now. Before pandemic, most of the processes were digital but now businesses are going fully digital if they want to survive their companies.

Fast-track Digital Transformation in companies

Work from home – a new way to work

With this pandemic, most of the employees are working from home globally. The new norms like social distancing and other necessary precautions are not possible to follow for many of the companies out there and so many of them are going digital. 

Meetings, conferences are now all going virtual due to this outbreak. However, COVID-19 has helped businesses to fast-track the digital transformation.

Telehealth

Telehealth services are experiencing high demand due to the coronavirus. Most of the patients are now opting for Telehealth and healthcare providers are using it to provide care to their patients like a daily routine checkup, medication, consultation, etc.

Remote Learning

Schools, educational institutes have closed around the world to slow down the spread of coronavirus. The rise of online learning has changed education for not forever but a few coming years.

Moving towards Digital Transformation

Digital transformation is still a major challenge and opportunity. When planning for digital transformation, organizations must factor the cultural changes they’ll confront as workers and organizational leaders adjust to adopting and relying on unfamiliar technologies. Digital transformation has created unique marketplace challenges and opportunities, as organizations must contend with nimble competitors who take advantage of the low barrier to entry that technology provides.
