Olis Robotics and Olympus Controls Evaluate Developing Remotely Operated AI-Robots Capable of New Levels of Precision in Dynamic Environments
New Agreement Explores Integrating Existing Proprietary Technologies to Produce Progressive-Autonomy Robots for Remote, Precision Tasks Beyond Traditional Warehouses
Olis Robotics, a leader in next-generation mobile remote robotics software, announced a new memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Olympus Controls, a leader in engineering innovation and automated robotic solutions for industry. The two Washington-based technology companies agreed to explore developing assisted autonomy applications to deliver new capabilities that support Olympus’ diverse customer needs.
“Olis Robotics’ artificial-intelligence software platform plugs into existing robots to allow for operators based anywhere in the world to command new levels of precision, safety, and efficiency in remotely operated robotics,” explained Olis Robotics CEO Don Pickering. “This evolving innovation solves for the challenge of acquiring highly-skilled labor in rural facilities such as data centers.”
Olis Robotics’ AI-driven software platform operates by integrating existing robotic systems into a singular, intuitive, remote control platform. The proprietary platform enables an operator to control multiple robots remotely to service dynamic and unstructured industrial locations.
