RightHand Robotics

RightHand Robotics is a United States-based warehouse automation company that builds a data-driven intelligent picking platform for order fulfillment. Founded in 2015 by a DARPA challenge-winning team drawn from the Harvard Biorobotics Lab, the Yale GRAB Lab, and MIT, the company set out to solve what it describes as the "holy grail" of warehouse automation: piece-picking for supply chain and e-commerce fulfillment. Its founders learned from the DARPA competition that a capable robotic gripper could be made by combining a compliant smart mechanism with sensing that improves through practical experience, and they applied that insight to commercial logistics. The company's flagship offering is the RightPick system, an autonomous piece-picking solution powered by AI and machine learning and enabled by proprietary industrial hardware. The system combines a field-proven gripper with three compliant fingers and suction, an industrial vision system, and the RightPick AI piece-picking brain. This hand-eye coordination allows the system to perceive, plan, and learn as it picks, bringing speed, predictability, and reliability to round-the-clock order fulfillment. RightHand Robotics reports that the system has handled hundreds of thousands of unique SKUs across verticals including e-commerce, pharmaceutical, apparel, health and beauty, and grocery, with cycle times as fast as three seconds and over a petabyte of operational data accumulated. RightHand Robotics complements the hardware with software and services. RightPick Fleet Management provides real-time operational visibility, exception handling tools, global fleet intelligence, data analysis and reporting, and remote operation and monitoring to optimize throughput across a fleet of robots. RightCare is an all-inclusive hardware and software maintenance and support program, managed by account team leaders and administered by certified technicians, offering preventative maintenance, 24/7 online and phone service, remote monitoring and debugging, and software updates that carry machine-learning-based picking performance improvements. The company launched its autonomous robotic piece-picking product in 2017 and developed key partnerships in Europe, Japan, and the United States, deploying fleets of robots for customers around the world. Its mission is to build intelligent machines so that humans do not have to be robots, and its vision is to be the obvious choice for robotic piece-picking for supply chains. RightHand Robotics remains a privately held company.

RightHand Robotics was founded in 2015 by a DARPA challenge-winning team from the Harvard Biorobotics Lab, the Yale GRAB Lab, and MIT. According to the company's own account, the founders learned from that competition that a capable robotic gripper could be made by combining a compliant smart mechanism with sensing that could improve through practical experience. They recognized, however, that building interesting technology alone was not enough; making a difference required fixing customer problems. They therefore started RightHand Robotics to focus on solving the "holy grail" of warehouse automation: piece-picking for supply chain and e-commerce fulfillment. The founding team took its grasping know-how and combined it with computer vision and AI. Before committing to a product direction, the company spoke to over a hundred end-users across a dozen industry verticals to gauge market appetite and define use cases. It quickly became clear that demand for a piece-picking machine was real and growing. In just a few short years, the company assembled a team committed to its mission and vision. RightHand Robotics launched its autonomous robotic piece-picking product in 2017. It subsequently developed key partnerships in Europe, Japan, and the United States and deployed fleets of robots for customers around the world. Tens of millions of picks into its journey, the company continues to learn, as do its robots, through fleet learning: each new robot benefits from 100 percent of the company's previous experience, creating better AI with better analytics, metrics, and training data. The company's flagship RightPick system has evolved into a platform combining a field-proven gripper with three compliant fingers and suction, a newly launched industrial vision system, and the RightPick AI piece-picking brain. RightHand Robotics reports that the system has handled hundreds of thousands of unique SKUs across verticals including e-commerce, pharmaceutical, apparel, health and beauty, and grocery, with cycle times as fast as three seconds and over a petabyte of operational data. Alongside the hardware, the company offers RightPick Fleet Management for real-time operational visibility and RightCare, an all-inclusive hardware and software maintenance and support program. RightHand Robotics remains a privately held company.
