The Company
Universal Robotics has created a form of artificial intelligence (Neocortex) that using sensor data to update control system behavior in real time. It interacts with Universal’s 3D software, Spatial Vision, which provides 3D inspection and 3D vision guidance. Universal is implementing the technology on industrial robots and other hardware to improve automation, provide flexibility, and enable human/machine interaction. Most of the technical staff have advanced degrees (PhD, MS), and are experts in robotics, vision, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and 3D sensor technologies.
