…has developed haptic intelligence for manipulation tasks that were previously difficult to automate, such as packing, machine tending, and autobagging. Smarter and more dexterous robots sound great, but how can the majority of warehouses, which are not yet automated, get started with them? Robotics 24/7 chatted with Dr. Bernard Casse, founder and CEO of RIOS, about rethinking business models as…

…that provide the perception and manipulation necessary to pick and place parcels. Key to Plus One Robotics’ effectiveness, the company added, is its approach to human-in-the-loop software. Employees, remote or on-premises, can supervise multiple robots from any location, speeding the robot’s ability to handle exceptions, enabling 24/7 operations. Users benefit from improved sorting and picking throughput by >30% while decreasing…

…combines machine vision, grasping, and manipulation algorithms to automate the induction process for a variety of item sets, including boxes, envelopes, parcels, and packages. Because it’s powered by Kindred’s reinforcement learning-based AI algorithms, INDUCT workcells become smarter, faster, and more efficient over time, the San Francisco-based company said. At the end of the 18-month beta program, INDUCT had achieved the…
