Perception Robotics

Perception Robotics is a tech start-up, founded in April 2012 and housed at the Los Angeles Clean Tech Incubator. We integrate a variety of industrial robot systems (including Fanuc, Kawasaki and Universal Robots) and conduct research for the National Science Foundation and NASA. We are a 7-person team with remote team members in Honolulu and Houston. Perception Robotics is a materials technology company focused on solving manipulation problems in industrial robotics. We have two unique technologies: 1) a pressure sensitive polymer that can be inexpensively cast into any shape and gives robots a sense of touch and 2) a gecko-like polymer that can rapidly transition from being sticky to not-sticky. We leverage these technologies to tackle robotic pick and place problems for robots. Combined with stereo cameras and smart software, we’re making the next generation of material handling robots and the first robotics company to solve picking problems using touch and vision.
