Prototyping & Digital Twins

MoveIt Pro’s physics-based simulation engine uses the actual robot runtime algorithms and offers:

• Accurate force-based interactions and perception in-the-loop control
• Concept visualization for stakeholder buy-in
• Fast paced development that isn’t blocked by hardware decisions and lead time
• Reduced time and effort when deploying to hardware

We also have experience with 3rd party simulation tools, including MuJoCo, Gazebo, Isaac Sim, and O3DE. Regardless of the sim tool chosen, the MoveIt Pro difference is the powerful algorithms included out of the box:

• Perception (ML segmentation, Object Registration and Camera Calibration)
• Motion planning (Collision Avoidance, Dynamic Path Generation and Grasp Generation)
• Motion control (Force Control, Compliant Control and Orientation Constraints)
• Teleoperation (Interactive Endpoint Control, Move to Saved Waypoint and Inspect Surface).

We use the same algorithms in simulation as we do on hardware, which ensures that your hardware-based prototype will be off running quickly with only minimal tuning required.

MoveIt Pro includes a wide variety of reference applications to get you off to a fast start, including:

• Mobile manipulation
• Pre-assembly & assembly
• Bin picking
• Welding / cutting
• Door opening, e.g. facility access
• Button pushing, e.g. elevator doors
• Teleoperation manual control

We augment these applications, or your custom app, with powerful algorithms including ML-based segmentation, motion planning, collision avoidance, visual servoing, and grasp generation.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or you have an early stage application, you’ll find the MoveIt Pro Development Platform is a great way to accelerate your prototyping. The drag and drop interface makes it simple to grab stored skills and behaviors to quickly assemble your application with behavior trees, in a model-based design paradigm.

When it comes to debugging, there is far less need to comb through log files and terminal outputs searching for the root cause. MoveIt Pro’s powerful debugger pinpoints the error by displaying the source of the breakdown on the screen.

Iterating your prototype has never been faster or easier.
