Driving the Artificial Perception Revolution in Mobile Robotics
RGo Robotics’ AI-powered Perception Engine™ provides mobile machines with human-level visual perception, enabling them to see, understand and navigate autonomously in complex environments.
For episode #108 of the podcast, I welcome Amir Bousani. Amir is the co-founder and CEO of RGo Robotics which is pioneering an artificial perception technology that enables mobile robots to understand complex surroundings and operate autonomously just like humans. Prior to founding RGo Robotics, Bousani lead the Advanced Technologies and System Innovation Groups at Intel RealSense.
Tell our audience about you and RGo.
How did you get into the robotics industry, specifically vision and autonomy?
Let’s talk about intelligent autonomy, what does that mean?
SLAM and Visual SLAM?
How big is this industry?
Tell us about your team. What skills are important and where do you want to grow?
What is a perception engine?
This industry is so big, with lots of different markets, are you concentrating on logistics and last mile, for example?
What are the big challenges to autonomy?
I like your model, it enables a company to do the hardware of a robot and not spend years developing the hard challenge of navigation. You have a cost optimized solution, a standard and a premium offering. Can you explain the differences?
How do you charge for your perception engine?
You have offices in Europe, Isreal and now an office in Boston? How many people in each office and do you see US growing?
What about data?
Tell us about your partners.
Who are your customers or prospects?
What do you see as the future of autonomy?
Amir When you are not knee deep in software, hardware and growing your team, what do you like to do for fun? Thanks for coming onto the podcast.
