For example, the one that arises from the interaction between robots and human beings “.
On the other hand, the general manager of the Sigdo Koppers Group, Juan Pablo Aboitiz, stated that “SK Lab has been developed through SK Godelius, a collaborative program aimed at supporting the group’s companies in their rapid adoption of the new emerging paradigms.
