Covariant is building a universal AI that allows robots to see, reason and act on the world around them.

Covariant is empowering industrials to perceive and act like humans instead of just strictly following pre-programmed or planned trajectories. Their technology enables existing robot hardware to handle a much wider range of tasks for which existing solutions would otherwise break down, including bin-picking of complex shapes, de-palletizing of irregular stacks and manipulation of deformable objects such as food, wires or cables and fluid-bags.
