Proprietary Juliet & Romeo real-time motion control programming language and virtual machine drives the HKM1800 high-throughput picking robot arm (2,000 picks/hr, 1.8 m reach, 10 m² cell footprint); integrates third-party Fizyr AI vision software and Zivid 3D cameras for unstructured bin-picking in AutoStore and intralogistics environments. MPToolSuite provides kinematic calibration and accuracy compensation for third-party robot arms (ABB, UR, Comau). SigmaTau platform targets large-part high-dynamic machining (aerospace). Founded 2013 as Lund University LTH/RobotLab spin-off focused on robot accuracy improvement; pivoted to product robotics with HKM1800 from 2022.
