May 29, 2025 - Mouser Electronics, Inc., the authorized global distributor with the newest electronic components and industrial automation products, equips engineers with the latest innovative solutions in its extensive online robotics resource center. Combining engineering and computer science, robotics continues to drive innovation across industries, reshaping automation, manufacturing, healthcare, and more. From precision-driven industrial systems to AI-enhanced automation, robotics is redefining efficiency, safety, and performance in complex applications.

Advancements in robotics span multiple domains. Soft robotics, designed to mimic organic movement, have revolutionized prosthetic development, enabling lifelike artificial limbs with enhanced dexterity. Meanwhile, sweeping robotics integrate advanced components like Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensors and antennas to optimize autonomous cleaning. In industrial settings, robots automate repetitive and hazardous tasks, boosting productivity, while collaborative robots (cobots) optimize workflows and free human workers for strategic roles. As artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) advance, robots are becoming smarter and more adaptable, paving the way for seamless human-robot collaboration.

Mouser's robotics content hub provides comprehensive resources, including articles, blogs, eBooks, and products, designed to guide users through the complexities of robotics. Selecting the right robotic system is crucial to optimizing performance in specific environments. Mouser's expert technical team and trusted manufacturing partners curate technical articles and resources to help engineers identify key differences, such as automated guided vehicles (AGVs) versus autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), helping engineers navigate critical design decisions and implement the most effective robotic solutions.

Mouser stocks the industry's widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components, including the following products and solutions for robotics applications:

● The AD-GMSL522-SL Gigabit Multimedia Serial Link (GMSL™) robotics rapid development platform from Analog Devices, Inc.(ADI) is a GMSL-enabled NVIDIA Jetson Xavier™ NX-based carrier board and software solution that allows for simple camera-to-display conversion. This solution creates a scalable, user-friendly GMSL platform for receiving and transmitting data. The platform enables demonstrations and ecosystem development by serving as a hardware platform for software development.
● The VL53L7CH ToF sensor by STMicroelectronics is an 8x8 (64 zones) multizone sensor with an ultrawide 90° diagonal Field of View. This sensor offers a Compact and Normalized Histogram innovative output for AI applications that require multizone raw ToF sensor data. The sensor is used in cup rim detection for coffee machines and beverage dispensers, people-counting for smart buildings, and other applications like floor sensing for robotics and vacuum cleaners.
● The AEAT-901B incremental magnetic encoders by Broadcom provide an integrated solution for angular detection within a complete 360° rotation. These encoders use magnetic technology for motion control and sensing activities, which helps eliminate mechanical contact and free the device from mechanical wear and tear. The magnetic encoders feature 256 to 10,000 CPR resolution, a -40°C to 125°C operating wide temperature range, and a 5V single supply.
● The RA8E2 480MHz microcontrollers by Renesas Electronics achieve 6.39CM/MHz (CoreMarks per MHz), enabling demanding and compute-intensive applications like endpoint AI and robotics. Using the Arm® Cortex® M85 core with a 7-stage superscalar pipeline (vs. 6-stage on the CM7 core) brings an unprecedented 30% higher scalar performance, improving efficiency versus the predecessor.
