…worldwide debut at Automate 2024. Comau said its new perception-based piece picking system can eliminate unsustainable sorting activities within diversified industries, which in turn increases both worker well-being and overall efficiency. The hardware-agnostic AI solution pairs vision technology and sensors to pick randomly displaced objects after calculating the picking pose within seconds. The compact and lightweight robot vision guidance system determines the most effective way to empty a bin. MI.RA/OnePicker can be installed on even the smallest collaborative robots without limiting reachability inside the bins. MI.RA/OnePicker is designed to autonomously pick miscellaneous objects from bins without relying on CAD-based assistance…
