Native Robotics

Native Robotics

Crunchbase Website Twitter Facebook Linkedin

Configuring an industrial robot can be a long and expensive procedure, which requires highly qualified engineers. Especially in the case of frequent changes in production, operational costs during the robot lifetime can rise up to 100% of initial investment.

Because of these hidden costs, complex configuration and necessity of highly qualified personnel, many companies are afraid to use robots in their production. This is especially true for SMEs.

At Native Robotics we tame the robots and give the control over them back to the end-users. We create ready-to-use apps for typical robot applications.

These apps are built for the end-user and have powerful optimization algorithms inside. As a result, the user can quickly and easily control the robot even in the case of frequent changes in production.

Moreover, our apps will automatically calculate the optimal path and dynamic load for the robot, thus reducing operational costs and prolonging robot’s life.. .

There are 3.4 million apps and games currently available on the Play Store store alone. With so much choice, it’s no wonder it takes users between 15-60 minutes to manually find a game they may be interested in.

Even when a user does find a game, 72% are uninstalled after being played just twice. By using an app store, users see less than 1% of the games available to them, the majority of these from the large studios with bigger marketing budgets.

Why Now: Another 1 billion people are expected to gain access to the internet in the next 3 years through mobile. Growing up truly mobile-first they’ll discover all their entertainment, including games via their phones.

Mobile gaming has reached the point of max-saturation, the app stores are overfilled and advertising is pulling customers in every direction to download games.

Joseph Joseph

Joseph Joseph

Crunchbase Website Twitter Facebook Linkedin

Twin brothers Antony and Richard Joseph grew up in a family with a long history of industrial glass manufacturing and engineering. The family business, started by their grandfather in 1936, originally produced everything from vehicle wing mirrors to fridge shelves.

But eventually it diversified into making decorative glass chopping boards, illustrated with rustic scenes. When tastes changed and demand began to wane it was clear a fresh approach was needed.

Having both trained in product design, the brothers were now embarking on their early careers – Antony as a freelance product designer and Richard studying for a master’s degree in design and manufacturing at Cambridge. When their father asked them to look at reinventing the glass chopping board range, they jumped at the chance.

After early success with their creative, colourful designs, their entrepreneurial spirit kicked in and in 2003 they decided to go it alone – and with that the Joseph Joseph brand was born. Their big leap forward though came from a simple observation – many everyday objects can actually create problems for the user through poor design.

In addition, many tasks around the home could be made much easier and more enjoyable with a little intelligent thinking. From this light-bulb moment Antony and Richard knew they’d found a way to differentiate Joseph Joseph from other brands.

And it set them on a path that was to create some truly iconic kitchenware. There’s something special about a Joseph Joseph product that sets it apart from the competition.

A connected universe of extended reality comprising of augmented, virtual and mixed reality combined with an internet of things powered haptic feedback immersive wearable devices and embedded clothing. Extended x live streaming x embedded devices and clothing = Embedded Reality Our aim is for people to connect with each other in an immersive way through the use of extended reality, live-streaming and IOT powered electro-tactile and vibro-tactile haptic feedback embedded wearable devices and clothing that allows them to express emotions virtually through actuators that stimulate the senses of the wearer.

Content creators are enabled to easily create and integrate content to the platform. True Immersive is more than just what one sees and hears, it’s also what they feel and how to stimulate all possible senses in the most interesting ways.

Haptic feedback embedded wearable promise to be one of the best ways to achieve this. At present, they are very expensive and rarely exists outside simulations and training programmes.

Creating content for augmented, virtual and mixed reality can be very expensive and time consuming to create. Good VR headsets are expensive, unwieldy.

Cheaper ones have basic functionalities. The need for headsets and resource consuming apps puts users off and thereby making it non-feasible for content creators.

Our solution also allows people, relatives, couples, parents and children who have been impacted by the covid-19 pandemic to have sensory engagement. For instance; allowing them to store memories of loved ones who have sadly passed, creating a haptic effect of a hug, a kiss, a touch, voice or visuals for instance videos or pictures of the loved ones.

90% of communication between humans is visual. Imagine if we could convert data into visual solutions We began our journey in 2015 with a vision to simplify the way that people can access, understand and communicate information about the world around them Through use of immersive technology, we identified an incredible opportunity to collect spatial intelligence, leveraging virtual, augmented and mixed reality as a vehicle for data collection and making the outputs of this simple, visual and accessible for all.

Today, our technology provides an innovative approach to gaining information from our environment and understanding and empowering the people that work within it. From mapping a physical asset to a digital platform with images or sensors and using this data to analyse its efficiency, condition and status remotely, or measuring the way stakeholders respond to virtual environments and situations generating information about human behaviour in that environment, our tools put people at the heart of the process.

The power for businesses lies not in just capturing data from the world around us, but by transforming it, through vision, into meaningful actionable information Spinview have made it reality and created a platform for data visualisation, collaboration and business intelligence through immersive technology. By delivering the seamless integration of technology through the connection of our real and digital worlds, we make it simple and easy for people to gain and communicate knowledge from their surroundings.

Providing a bridge between the physical and digital worlds, we provide easy to understand and access information for clearer, faster, smarter decision making. With an interface as easy to use as a smartphone information is available everywhere it’s needed, regardless of physical presence, data can be understood, shared, analysed, manipulated, or optimized, seamlessly connecting departments and empowering users – understand customers, – enhance operational efficiency, and – create highly personalized products and services.

Data capture is made simple from start to finish, our unique IP includes an end to end SaaS based platform and scanning solution’s that any member of an organisation can use in the real world without the need for engineering or tech teams Data that is made simple to capture, simple to use and simple to communicate at all stages.
