…Stinson, chief operating officer at manipulation AI provider Covariant. After all, how does one determine if an AI-driven arm and gripper can actually handle the rapidly changing SKU mixes seen in modern e-commerce? Flashy presentations from a dozen or more vendors can’t really answer that question, Stinson said. “It’s a crowded and confusing marketplace, where trying to understand the capabilities…

…towards exploratory or sophisticated dexterous manipulation, according to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. OpenAI gave it a try with “Dactyl” (meaning “finger” from the Greek word daktylos), using its humanoid robot hand to solve a Rubik’s cube with software that’s a step towards more general AI, and a step away from the common single-task mentality. DeepMind created “RGB-Stacking,” a vision-based…
