| Rethink Robotics is a new kind of robotics company, and their mission is to create a new kind of manufacturing robot. One that introduces robotics into processes that manufacturers have never been able to cost-effectively automate. One that uses common sense to perform a wide range of tasks and vastly improve productivity. And one that safely works side by side with its human counterparts, who are able to train it with no programming or engineering expertise.
Year founded: 2008 |
| The company wants to change that reality with its smart collaborative robots like Baxter and Sawyer that can easily work with humans and adapt to real-world variability and imperfections.
A collaborative robot, as Rethink's engineers define it, is intended to work interactively in a people-compatible way. Unlike traditional robots, Baxter learns by training, not by programming. |
