Today, even a simple task of putting a screw into a screw hole without slipping a thread remains non-automatable across the globe. Imagine what it would take for a robot to assemble a Smartphone or a car by putting together thousands of parts of varied shapes and weights presented in random orientations. Enabling robots to perform Picking Orienting & Placing of objects straight from its container has been a long-standing unsolved problem – touted as The Holy Grail of Robotics and has remained unsolved over 40 years.
We at CynLr, are building the missing pieces of Visual Intelligence for Robotic Arms to make them Object aware to manipulate with superior agility - adapting to the varying shapes, orientations and weights of the object – (demo here - https://youtu.be/QWXsUa2w-WE). This we envision could simplify and standardize large, customized factory lines into LEGO blocks of micro-factories, thereby Universalizing Factories.
