Covariant

Our software team is the cornerstone of delivering human-level autonomy in our robots. They transform cutting-edge research into real-world solutions, driving improvements across applications and bringing our Robotic Foundation Model to life for customers and partners.

Secret bin picking competition testing out-of-the-box performance, learning, and adaptability‼️ Covariant and ABB Robotics teaming up to make robotics smart…..powered by AI. Why #AI⁉️ Not just because it rhymes ;-) ✅ picking, packing, loading, and unloading represent up to 60% of fulfillment operations costs ✅ Recent advancements in the field of modern AI now enable traditional robots to perform and adapt to dynamic and complex conditions ✅ reduce operational cost for fulfillment and the soaring e-commerce industry Covariant's Brain-powered robotic solutions are proving their worth. In the secret bin picking competition, half of the items tested were intentionally kept confidential. Out of 20 participating companies, #Covariant was the only one to succeed in all the tests. #automation #robotics Lukas M. Ziegler Miloš Kučera Katja Butterweck

In AI Robotics, achieving 99% reliability—where human intervention is needed less than 1% of the time—is the critical threshold separating commercially viable solutions from costly experiments. The true measure of an autonomous solution lies in its ability to function not just under ideal conditions, but in the face of real-world imperfections. Warehouse environments are far from pristine testing floors—products fall, labels stick together, and unexpected issues arise regularly. A system’s response to these inevitable challenges defines its practical value. Check out our latest blog: https://lnkd.in/ggD_BX3g

AI Robotics enables instant scaling for brands like MERIT and Alastin Skincare, A Galderma Company at Capacity. Whether it's a midnight product launch or holiday rush– when the warehouse's productivity needs to perform at an all-time high, the Capacity warehouse meets demand without scrambling for additional staff, ensuring a reliable, cost-effective operation.

Take a behind-the-scenes look at the Covariant Brain’s high-precision AI visualization in action, picking and placing diverse consumer items.

Some members of our European team, hailing from Germany, UK, France, Austria, Lithuania, Lebanon, Algeria, and the US, made the big trip to Covariant HQ. The global collaboration led by this group is a driving force behind achieving peak performance and cutting-edge innovation for our customer’s operations.

Billions have been invested into automating the “feet” of facilities. Now, industry leaders worldwide are turning to the Covariant Brain to automate the “hands” – one of the most critical yet labor-intensive areas. Our AI platform empowers robots to perceive their environment dynamically, handling nuanced tasks with reliability and flexibility.

The best performing AI matters. ABB invited 20 robotics companies to solve 26 complex piece-picking challenges, half of them kept secret. Covariant was the only one to successfully complete them all. See the full video here: https://lnkd.in/gFJKXdwK

Three years ago, Waldo, an AI-powered Robotic Putwall, joined the Capacity team. Soon after, they expanded their fleet to five, welcoming C-3PL, Maggie, PutWALL-E, and Jarvis to their force.
