Apera AI's Vue Robotic Vision Software is complete robotic guidance for industrial robotics using AI.

Vue Robotic Vision Software

Vision driven by AI makes robotic cells more reliable and productive. You can now use vision-guided robotics with less expertise and risk. Vue software can change robotic guidance, bin picking, assembly and more in your facilities.

Apera Vue Robotic Vision Software

Fast, Reliable Robotic Guidance

Apera AI trains your parts into our AI engine through 1 million simulated cycles to reach 99.99% reliability.

The AI learns to understand your parts completely, so the robot can take the fastest, safest, most reliable path in and out of movements to handle the parts. Vue understands how to avoid collisions within the operating area, even with the object in hand. Since the AI also understands how the object has been picked up, it can precisely and accurately place it, or assemble it with another object.

Performance Highlights

Vue software provides a total vision cycle time as low as 0.3 seconds.

Industry-Leading Total Vision Cycle Time

In as little as 0.3 seconds, Vue can identify an object to pick and provide movement instructions to the robot. You could hit 2,000 picks per hour with an industrial robot.

Vue can operate in all light conditions including variable lighting, dark rooms and outside.

Light Resilience

This isn't conventional vision where light has to be carefully controlled for structured lights or lasers to work. This is vision that works in all lighting conditions—bright, dark, outside or in variable conditions—without special equipment.

AI is trained by Apera to completely understand the objects handled by the robot and the task they will perform.

No Vision Expertise Required

Vue trains your task into our AI ahead of installation. We return a ready vision program to you tuned for high performance, so no vision expertise is needed.

What’s new in Vue?

Features

Autopilot

Apera Autopilot enables the robot to take the best path in and out of a movement. The robot will avoid collisions in its environment, such as the movement out of a deep bin with the object in hand. The programmer can define movements like the approach / withdrawal related to an object.

Autopilot is also protection against singularities where robots lose the ability to move one or more of its joints.

Features

Dexterity

Dexterity is intelligence for two-finger gripping. This is AI telling the robot how to grasp an object with a two-finger gripping, without interfering with the objects around an object. Users can define the pickable points on an object, with the vision system understanding the orientation of the object in the robot's grasp. This enables the object to be precisely placed or oriented for another manufacturing step.
