\n The event, attended by many professionals and manufacturers, offered the Baxter robot an opportunity to show what it was capable of. There can be no denying that Baxter attracted keen interest from professionals, who see Baxter, and collaborative robotics in general, as the next great source of productivity gains in companies.\n <\/p>\n \n \n
