RB / APPLIED INTELLIGENCE

Intelligent systems for
real-world problems.

We build AI, robots and autonomous systems that learn from the way you work —
adapting intelligence to you, not asking you to adapt to it.

Observe

Sensing / data acquisition

Acquire information from imperfect or noisy real-world sources.

  • Physical sensor data
  • Imaging and process measurements
  • Sensor fusion
02 / 04

Understand

Estimation / inference

Infer hidden states, risk, quality or structure from incomplete observations.

  • Data analysis
  • Estimation
  • Prediction
03 / 04

Decide

Intelligence / optimization

Turn estimated state and context into useful decisions.

  • Decision support
  • Human-in-the-loop
  • Optimization
04 / 04

Act

Control / autonomy

Execute decisions autonomously and safely.

  • Robotic systems
  • Self-calibration
  • Automated reporting
