CapSen Robotics, an innovator in 3D machine vision and motion planning software for robotic bin-picking applications, introduces the v2.0 release of its CapSen PiC software. The system features an intuitive new user interface (UI) and programmable AI designed to tackle challenging high-mix, low-volume bin-picking tasks.
CapSen PiC 2.0 combines 3D vision, motion planning, and control algorithms to provide robots the ability to locate, pick, and manipulate objects from cluttered bins and shelves. The system accurately detects 3D objects in a range of different positions and orientations, even when they’re partially occluded or in tight work-spaces. The software provides consistent and complete control of a robot, end effector, and 3D cameras within a robot cell, greatly lessening the integration burden of deploying a bin-picking system. In addition, CapSen PiC 2.0 features programmable AI techniques that enable high-mix, low-volume bin- picking tasks in manufacturing.
“Advances in black box AI algorithms for text and image generation have garnered a great deal of press lately, with some companies exploring their use within industrial automation,” said Jared Glover, CEO of CapSen Robotics. “Safety and reliability requirements in manufacturing require a more structured approach, however, so while CapSen PiC 2.0 leverages AI tools to improve its 3D vision and motion planning algorithms, it does so within a constrained framework that provides the user control and peace of mind that the robot will work exactly as programmed, every time.”
