Technological breakthroughs, especially robotics and artificial intelligence, around the world are rapidly changing the way of our interaction with technology surrounding us. Robotics is no longer a far-reaching technology right now. It has already started influencing not only complex business environments but also our lives. The world has been witnessing a growing crop of robotics startups in the last few years that are advancing the way of interaction with robots in all scenarios. Analytics Insight has compiled a list of the coolest robotics startups that are disrupting the robotics industry in 2021.
As the Robotics market is estimated to hit US$210 billion by 2025, here are the top 10 cool robotics startups to keep an eye on in 2021.
Diligent Robotics is a Texas-based robotics startup. It develops AI-enhanced robot assistants to collaborate with and adapt to humans in everyday environments. Diligent Robotics designs and builds robots like Moxi that assist clinical staff with routine activities so they can focus on caring for patients. Last year, the startup raised US$10 million in series A funding to scale its solution to a wider customer base as well as accelerate its product strategy and development in both hardware and software.
Magazino is a developer of mobile, perception-driven robots for warehouse logistics and intralogistics. The Munich, Germany-based robotics startup builds software and develops robots that work together with people autonomously, safely and at a level of navigation with manipulation that nobody before has reached. Magazino's robots leverage machine learning and advanced computer vision to work alongside human warehouse workers and make the right strategic decisions.
Brain Corp is a team of robot enthusiasts that are focused on creating the world's best AI software for building and using autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). The San Diego, California-based startup develops transformative core technology for the robotics industry. Founded in 2009, the company's comprehensive solutions support builders of today's autonomous machines in successfully producing, deploying and supporting robots across commercial industries and applications.
Robust.AI, a California-based robotics startup, creates a new foundation for the future of robotics. The company runs around, automates some day-to-day tasks, and even converses with people on a very basic level. Robust.AI is engaged in developing a cognitive engine, which robots use to serve different purposes like manufacturing, healthcare, etc. Last October, the company secured US$15 million in a Series A financing round taking its total valuation to US$22.5 million.
California-based Simbe Robotics builds automation solutions for shelf auditing and analytics. The company automates the most mundane, repetitive tasks in retail execution. Its product, dubbed Tally, performs the repetitive and arduous tasks of auditing shelves for out-of-stock items, low-stock items, misplaced items, and pricing errors. Tally operates safely during normal store hours alongside shoppers and employees.
This United States-based robotics startup specializes in designing, manufacturing, and commercializing people-centric robotics systems across a wide variety of domains. ArcheRobotics' goal is to create the ultimate robotics platform, supported by a strong business and market strategy. The startup can support and deploy solutions with its global technology partners while bringing the technical, industrial and academic expertise of its team.
Voliro aims to provide innovative UAVs with unique capabilities. Based in Zurich, Switzerland, the startup is developing a highly advanced flying robot for safe and efficient work at height. Its powerful aerial robotics platform is supported by a strong ecosystem of applications delivered via its own and third-party capabilities. With its flying robot, Voliro T, Voliro works with inspection service-providers and asset owners.
Akara is a facility management robotics startup. The Dublin-based company is a spin-out of Europe's leading robotics labs at Trinity College Dublin (TCD). Akara provides unprecedented speed, reliability and germ-killing effectiveness via its AI-powered robots to hospitals. The company's end-to-end disinfectant system uses a patent-protected, state-of-the-art disinfection robot called 'Violet', which has emerged from nearly two years of collaboration with some of Ireland's leading microbiologists at Trinity College Dublin.
Saildrone is a California-based robotics startup that designs and manufactures wind and solar-powered autonomous surface vehicles called Saildrones. Saildrones make cost-effective ocean data collection possible at a large scale. Saildrone's patented wing technology was born from 10 years of R&D in pursuit of the land speed record. The company's measurements and observations from above and below the ocean surface provide intelligence and insight for subjects ranging from maritime security to mapping and earth system processes such as weather forecasting, carbon cycling, global fishing and climate change.
Augmentus is a Singapore-based AI-robot programming platform. The company enables rapid robot programming at a small fraction of the cost of traditional robot teaching. Its no-code and fully-integrated robotics platform enable anyone – even those with no robotic experience or programming skills – to develop, deploy and re-purpose robotic systems in minutes. Companies using Augmentus have experienced up to 70% cost reduction and 17 times faster deployments across a wide variety of applications, such as spraying, palletizing, welding, and inspections.
