Soft Robotics Expands 3D Vision, Soft Grasping and Artificial Intelligence Technology to Consumer Goods, E-Commerce, and Logistics

Soft Robotics Inc. announced it has expanded commercial focus for its mGripAI artificial intelligence-enabled picking solutions to target the Consumer Goods, E-Commerce, and Logistics industries. This unique solution of 3D Vision, Artificial Intelligence, and Soft Grasping gives industrial robots the dexterity and hand-eye coordination of human workers enabling their use in unstructured applications such as order fulfillment, sortation, decanting, and kitting.

Initially introduced to the food processing industry in 2021, mGripAI, with its proven ability to reliably pick, place, and sort delicate and variable products at extremely high speeds (>90ppm) will now help warehouses and distribution centers decouple operations from the challenges of labor availability.
