Our software is powered by AI, enabling it to learn and adapt autonomously. We have trained it on a variety of products, including fruits, vegetables, FMCG, CPG, electronics, and pharmaceuticals. It can detect both familiar and new objects in its environment. Once an object is detected, it determines its orientation, the best gripping method, and the right pressure to apply, ensuring delicate items like tomatoes aren’t damaged. In cases where detection fails, the software alerts a remote human operator, who helps identify the object, allowing the software to learn from this interaction and improve its detection capabilities for future instances.

Mowito develops AI-powered vision software for robotic arms, enabling them to perform complex tasks across industries such as FMCG, pharmaceuticals, and electronics. Their software addresses key challenges by allowing robots to handle delicate items in dynamic environments and operate seamlessly alongside human workers.
