…solve customer design challenges in areas including robot sensing, perception, mapping, localization, motion control, low-level control, or actuation. It claimed that it can do so at 500x the speed of modern processors. “Robots are networks of networks, with sensors passing data to compute technologies and actuators,” stated Víctor Mayoral-Vilches, founder of Acceleration Robotics. “These networks can be understood as the nervous system of the robot.” “Like with the human nervous system, low latency and real-time information is fundamental for the robot to behave coherently,” he added. “Faster robots—or with more dexterity—require faster computations.” “Hardware acceleration with ROBOTCORE empowers exactly this,”…

…Robotic Depalletization System is equipped with the company’s SightWorks perception software, which OSARO said enables the robot to recognize, select, and successfully pick items from mixed-case pallets. Through its machine-vision base features, the depalletizing robot can recognize mixed-case boxes on complex pallets by identifying box centers, dimensions, and orientation, as well as packages of different sizes and materials and unevenly stacked packages. Machine-learning robot provides flexible deployment The OSARO Robotic Depalletization System can also determine if boxes are damaged or structurally unsound to avoid risky picks - assigning a damage score - identify protruding boxes that are within a defined…
