GuideNOW:
Real-time Robot Guidance
GuideNOW is a real-time robot guidance solution based on 3D vision and powered by Inbrain. It comprises a 3D camera mounted on the robot, Inbrain, our real-time workpiece localization AI, and GuideNOW Studio, a web application for the training of our AI algorithms for each CAD model or 3D scan.
INBRAIN
Inbrain is the most efficient 3D matching vision technology currently available.
Its AI-powered system can quickly process large amounts of 3D data and determine the position and orientation of a workpiece. The technology adapts the robot's trajectory in real-time. Our proprietary software is 100x faster than leading algorithms, and can work with any hardware.
The solution reduces automation costs and improves automation flexibility by enabling it in all types of environments: structured, semi-structured, and unstructured. Real-time robot guidance makes it possible to react dynamically to unplanned events.
HOW IT WORKS
GuideNOW enables smarter industrial robots.
set-up
After mounting the camera on the robot, Inbrain is set-up and trained offline using GuideNOW studio, where the CAD model of the workpiece and any necessary infrastructure from the environment (jigs, table, cell) can be imported. The whole process lasts no more than 30 min.
run time
Inbrain uses the 3D camera to track the workpiece as soon as it enters the field of view, providing continuous offsets to the robot's trajectory to ensure the programmed process is carried out at the correct position.

OUR BENEFITS
Reduces cost to automation
By reducing the need for these custom jigs and indexing tooling, manufacturing processes can become more efficient and cost-effective.
Reduced programming time
GuideNOW can be set in less than 30 minutes. The user can train every new reference by himself.
Improves line productivity
GuideNOW guidance is real-time while other solutions take several seconds per positioning.
Reduces non-quality
The adaptation of the robot trajectory prevents collisions with the part or the execution of processes in the wrong place.
