Our solutions for robotics software engineering

So that robots are able to reliably understand their surroundings, we equip them with perception capabilities based on traditional computer vision combined with deep learning methods for multimodal and multi-perspective perception. With the help of deterministic or randomised planning algorithms, we ensure precise interaction in the respective context. Using a real-time motion kernel with powerful kinematics and dynamics algorithms, we ensure safe and repeatable execution – ideal for high-performance industrial applications in the field of robotics software.

Modern robotics software must meet the highest standards of functional safety and at the same time enable autonomous and cognitive functions. Our robotics experts design scalable software architectures – from three-layer architectures to MAPE-K – and combine them with tried-and-tested AI techniques, modelling patterns and middleware such as behaviour trees, HTNs or ROS. We work with you to migrate your existing control software to a new target architecture or to another operating system, such as FreeRTOS, VxWorks or Realtime Linux. This is how we make robots sustainably autonomous.

For robotic systems, we combine the principles of distributed systems with the requirements and standards of industrial communication systems – such as EtherCAT, CoE or OPC UA – to create the basis for our state-of-the-art IoT robotics solutions. This enables reliable and secure networking of robots, tools and machines in line with Industry 4.0.

Seamless and effective human-robot interaction is crucial for the successful use of robotic systems. To enable end users to interact productively with robots, sophisticated interaction concepts are required. These can take the form of graphical user interfaces, no-code platforms or natural voice control.

At the same time, developers need powerful application programming interfaces (APIs), cross-language bindings and specialised development tools to efficiently implement high-quality robotics software. As a strategic partner, we design and develop these solutions – for an outstanding user experience and pioneering robotics.

To ensure robotic systems continue to perform well in the long-term, we use a robust software basis that is being continuously developed. Operational stability and the ability to make iterative improvements are at the centre of this approach. With the help of extensive continuous delivery pipelines, we ensure that new functions can be integrated – without jeopardising operational reliability. By validating real-time source code, using comprehensive automated behaviour testing under real-time conditions with external measuring devices as well as targeted safety analyses, we are able to create a reliable basis for long-term industrial use. This is complemented by powerful solutions for application monitoring (APM) and robot telemetry. Not only can our delivery pipelines integrate these systems, but they can also configure them automatically – tailored to the requirements of your robot fleet in the field. In this way, we ensure that our robotics software is not only stable but is also future-proof – for maximum efficiency in networked industrial automation.
