Adept Releases SmartMotion RX(TM) Controller Upgrade.LIVERMORE Livermore, city (1990 pop. 56,741), Alameda co., W central Calif.; inc. 1876. Nursery stock is grown, and there is light manufacturing, but the major sources of employment are wineries and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (see Lawrence Berkeley National , Calif. -- Adept Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:ADEP ADEP Association d'Entraide des Polios et Handicapés ADEP Accelerated Degree Evening Program ADEP Accelerator-Driven Energy Production ADEP Avionics Document for Execution & Planning ADEP Automatic Depth Control ), the leading provider of intelligent vision-guided robotics robotics, science and technology of general purpose, programmable machine systems. Contrary to the popular fiction image of robots as ambulatory machines of human appearance capable of performing almost any task, most robotic systems are anchored to fixed positions and global robotics services, announced the release of the Adept SmartMotion RX(TM), a new controller bundle to replace the earlier generation of controller on RX(TM) series robots. The SmartMotion RX features state-of-the-art controller technology, backed by the full support of Adept service capabilities. It is based on the Adept SmartServo(TM) distributed controls architecture, and its new features include the latest generation AdeptVision(TM) products, multiple-robot support and Adept's state-of-the-art programming tools, like Adept DeskTop(TM) 4.0 and the T1 Pendant pendant or pendent In architecture, a sculpted ornament suspended from a vault or ceiling, especially an elongated boss (carved keystone) at the junction of the intersecting ribs of the fan vaulting associated with the English Perpendicular style. .
