16 April 2024
Neura Robotics and Omron Robotics and Safety Technologies have announced a strategic partnership which aims to introduce cognitive robots into factory automation, leveraging advanced AI capabilities to enhance efficiency, flexibility, and safety.
Cognitive robots have the ability to learn from their environment, make decisions autonomously, and adapt to dynamic production scenarios. This opens new application possibilities including intricate assembly tasks, detailed quality inspections, and adaptive material handling processes.
Olivier Welker, President and CEO of Omron Robotics and Safety Technologies, said: “We see Neura’s cognitive technologies as a compelling growth opportunity for industrial robotics. By combining Neura’s solutions with Omron’s global reach and automation portfolio, we will provide customers new ways to increase safety, productivity, and flexibility in their operations.”
David Reger, Founder and Visionary of Neura Robotics, said: “The strategic connection between Omron and Neura Robotics is a milestone in the history of industrial automation. It brings us a significant step closer to our goal of revolutionising the global robotics market. By pooling our sensor and AI technologies and expertise into an ultimate platform approach, we will significantly shape the future of the manufacturing industry and set new standards.”
