• Lessons learned from 40 years of remote and autonomous systems in extreme environments of sea, air, and space
• Systems in these environments become less “autonomous” as they are situated within human systems of operation and use
• The challenge before us is not “full autonomy” (largely solved) but Situated Autonomy
• The Perfect Five

“All autonomous systems are joint human-machine cognitive systems
There are no fully autonomous
systems just as there are no fully autonomous soldiers, sailors, airmen
or Marines” (p.24)

Humatics seeks to become the leading company enabling robots and autonomous systems to work within human environments. Our mission is to make autonomy better, safer and more trustworthy, by dramatically improving the way industrial, commercial and consumer robots and autonomous systems navigate complex environments to easily collaborate with people.
We are assembling a world-class product development team based on the simple idea that humans should and will remain essential to valuable technological systems.
Raised initial seed funding in summer of 2015, seeking series A 2016 with strategic partners.

PRECISION LOCALIZATION
INDUSTRIAL COLLABORATION
Human workers must stay outside of taped-off factory “danger zones” when industrial assembly robots are performing potentially dangerous tasks.
Industrial robots go into safety or “hold” mode to permit safe human access to factory assembly areas.
Humatics RF sensors installed along factory ceiling, on robot effector arm, and on human worker wristbands or badges.
Humatics precision localization technologies could enable humans and robots to work on shared assembly tasks – safely; simultaneously; in close proximity.
