    In December 2020, the Southwest Research Institute's Cooperative Research Group on ROS-Industrial Consortium-Americas (RIC-Americas) notified the Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission about changes to its membership under the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 1993. The changes include adding Surface Intelligent Science and Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. and the Georgia Institute of Technology to the consortium. The updates are meant to maintain the Act's protection, which limits antitrust plaintiffs' recovery to actual damages in certain situations. Membership remains open, and the group plans to file further notifications regarding membership changes.

    Simple Explanation

    The notice is about a group working on robot technology that is letting two new members join. This group tells the government about their members to keep things fair and avoid any trouble with the rules about being fair in business.

    ASTM International told the government about updates to their rule-making work, which is a bit like telling the teacher that they have changed the classroom rules, to make sure that if someone complains, they can agree on what the rules were.
