Reinventing Factory Automation RIOS develops and deploys dexterous AI-powered robots to factory assembly lines and warehouses to help global customers automate their supply chain or logistics operations. We’ve developed a first-of-its-kind haptic intelligence platform for robots – this enables our robot to handle hard-to-automate tasks that typically require human-level-dexterity and involve manipulating thousands of SKUs. Our robots possess higher levels of dexterity, cognitive skills, and autonomy than today's robots and operate in unstructured environments.

…of forklifts and picking devices through instantaneous feedback and “haptic” technology Inter-equipment communications that allow robots and other automated machinery to optimize routing around a warehouse Revolutionary Last-Mile Delivery LSPs have long wrestled with the “Last-Mile Delivery” problem - how to maximize the speed and efficiency of getting goods from a local distribution center to their final destination. 5G can help to bridge this gap, by supporting new technology like drone delivery. A remote pilot could fly a drone using video and haptic feedback; alternatively, drones may even become fully autonomous, with 5G supporting their sensors and communications. Self-driving vehicles…

…as Sixense's training apps, the use of replica equipment plays an important role. In Flaim Trainer, users use a haptic-enabled water nozzle that can simulate water pressure. In Sixense's spray simulation application, users use an industry-standard paint gun. The incorporation of eye tracking, hand tracking, and replica equipment that help build muscle memory brings AR-VR-powered training to a new level, setting it apart from entertainment applications that focus primarily on immersive visuals.

…human movements in real time, and the actuators provide haptic feedback. In this way, a robot can watch a human complete a task and then absorb the movement data to imitate the actions (MM&D Online Staff 2018). Distribution: In distribution and fulfillment centers, robots have been programmed to assist with order picking by traveling to a specific location to pick a pallet of an item or, in more advanced scenarios, individual items. In these cases, a human double-checks the robot’s work. Amazon, through its acquisition of Kiva Systems, is a leader in the use of robots in fulfillment and boasts…

…operate with more human-like abilities. For example, improvements in haptic sensors - those relating to the sense of touch - will allow robots to grasp objects ranging from fragile eggshells to multi-surfaced metal assembly parts without changes in programming or robotic components, according to Deloitte. As autonomous robot hardware and software continues to improve over the next 10 years, Deloitte says robots could provide a competitive advantage for companies. “Through improvements in sensors, dexterity, artificial intelligence, and trainability, they are becoming faster and more sophisticated, and they now include safety provisions that allow them to work collaboratively with humans.” PINC…
