NEURA Robotics and Omron Robotics Partner to Introduce Cognitive Robotics in Manufacturing

The buzz around combining robotics and artificial intelligence is reaching new heights, and NEURA Robotics GmbH and Omron Robotics and Safety Technologies Inc. are at the forefront of this convergence. The two companies have announced a strategic partnership to introduce “cognitive robotics” into the manufacturing industry.

NEURA Robotics, founded in 2019 by David Reger, aims to revolutionize automation by combining sensors, AI, and robotics components into a platform for app development similar to smartphones. The company’s “NEURAverse” offers flexibility and cost efficiency in automation, setting new standards for the industry.

Unlike traditional industrial robots, cognitive robots have the ability to learn from their environment, make autonomous decisions, and adapt to dynamic production scenarios. This opens up new possibilities for intricate assembly tasks, detailed quality inspections, and adaptive material handling processes.

Omron Robotics and Safety Technologies, a subsidiary of OMRON Corp. based in Pleasanton, Calif., specializes in automation and safety sensing. By partnering with NEURA, Omron aims to leverage its sensor and channel expertise to provide customers with new ways to increase safety, productivity, and flexibility in their operations.

The collaboration between NEURA and Omron Robotics is not just about market access; it’s about making robots easier to use and driving overall adoption. By integrating cognitive abilities with sensor technology, the two companies are working towards a plug-and-play solution that will benefit both industrial and household robotics markets.

NEURA’s partnership with Omron Robotics is part of its overall platform approach, which also includes a collaboration with Kawasaki. The company is focused on making robots cognitive to enable AI to be useful to humanity instead of competing with us. NEURA will be presenting a session on “Developing Cognitive Robotics Systems” at the Robotics Summit & Expo in Boston, showcasing its innovative approach to robotics technology.

As NEURA expands its presence in the U.S., the company is looking for leadership team members, application developers, and engineers to join its growing team. With plans for facilities in Detroit, Boston, and beyond, NEURA is poised to make a significant impact on the robotics industry.

The partnership between NEURA Robotics and Omron Robotics represents a significant step forward in the integration of cognitive robotics into manufacturing. By combining their expertise and technologies, the two companies are paving the way for a new era of automation and innovation in the industry.
