READY Robotics enables manufacturers to more easily deploy robots to the factory floor through a patented technology platform that combines a very easy to use programming interface and plug'n'play hardware. The company encourages manufacturers to be more competitive through the line of intuitive-to-use, easy to control industrial robotic software called Forge, which is a suite of products that requires minimum installation effort, no robotic or programming experience necessary.

Rethink Robotics is a new kind of robotics company, and their mission is to create a new kind of manufacturing robot. One that introduces robotics into processes that manufacturers have never been able to cost-effectively automate. One that uses common sense to perform a wide range of tasks and vastly improve productivity. And one that safely works side by side with its human counterparts, who are able to train it with no programming or engineering expertise.Year founded: 2008

Veo Robotics is transforming manufacturing with products that incorporate advanced computer vision, 3D sensing, and AI. Their first product lets high-performance industrial robots work collaboratively with people to enable much more flexible, productive, and efficient manufacturing workcells.

Wandelbots is a german startup that enables non-programmers to teach industrial robots faster and cheaper using smart clothing. Based on sensors attached to clothes, the Wandelbots software backend tracks human motion to live-control industrial robots. Operators can teach automation tasks by demonstration. The software backend builds a Machine Learning model based on several demonstrations and generates automation worklfows. They can be refined and optimized with the software tool.The generated processes are self-adaptive, so learned processes can automatically be used in dynamic environments. This adaptation includes automatic Anomaly Detection, process adaptation and MES-integration.

XpertRule is a global leader in Decision Automation solutions with a focus on the Industrial IoT. Our software combines Machine Learning with human expertise and deploys across the IoT ecosystem from the Edge, to Cloud and mobile device (for alerts and troubleshooting)
