Intrinsic examined its newest platform and Flowstate with Comau, an Italian-based robotic producer and world programs integrator. Comau has been working with Intrinsic for a number of years now to validate Intrinsic’s platform know-how and developer product, Flowstate, by way of real-world use instances. 

Flowstate, introduced earlier this yr in Could, is a robotic software program improvement platform. It’s Intrinsic’s first developer product constructed on the Intrinsic platform. Comau was additionally launched as the corporate’s first trade accomplice in Could. 

The Intrinsic Flowstate software program provides a layer of abstraction to conventional robotic software program instruments with the objective of lowering the event skillset required whereas making it simpler than ever earlier than to program a robotic in simulation.

“Partnering with Comau through the years has introduced our workforce an amazing quantity of experience, data, and real-world use instances to focus our efforts on. We’re excited for what’s subsequent and what it’s going to imply to the answer builders of as we speak and tomorrow,” Wendy Tan White, CEO of Intrinsic, stated.

Comau now makes use of Flowstate and the Intrinsic platform for a wide range of initiatives. For instance, Comau is utilizing the platform to assemble the inflexible elements of a plug-in hybrid electrical automobile (PHEV) tremendous module. Supermodules are compact power converters that assist electrical vehicles to be charged and operated extra effectively for higher vary and efficiency.

“To proceed to develop into the longer term, we have to continually pursue alternatives to extra effectively serve our current clients … but in addition deliver within the subsequent software program improvements to handle new industries comparable to renewable power, battery manufacturing, and logistics. We consider that Intrinsic Flowstate will make it a lot quicker to design, program, and reprogram robotic work cells, saving lots of of handbook programming hours on each undertaking,” Pietro Gorlier, CEO of Comau, stated throughout Intrinsic’s product keynote earlier this yr.

Comau’s imaginative and prescient is to assist system builders leverage software program to resolve troublesome issues in useful methods. Intrinsic’s platforms empower extra of Comau’s workforce, together with builders, to construct AI-infused programs quicker and in a extra scalable means. This implies Comau can supply extra modular and reasonably priced programs to its clients over time.

In December, Intrinsic introduced it had acquired the Open Supply Robotics Company (OSRC), the for-profit arm of the Open Supply Robotics Basis, which is the developer of the Robotic Working System (ROS).
