Boston startup is lauded for its fully automatic motion planning software for industrial robots. The software develops an optimized “choreography” for robots that work closely together in cells. By coordinating the motion of each robot, the software prevents collisions.

Traditionally, many small- and medium-sized manufacturers avoided robots, because they were intimidating. Companies lacked the necessary programming knowledge and technical expertise. And, they simply weren’t willing to make investments in personnel that bigger manufacturers could afford.
