AiKit
Teach your robot arm a new task by showing it once.
AiKit is a complete retrofit kit and task compiler for one industrial arm. One demonstration, no robot code, production-ready in minutes, on the robot you already own.

AiKit in action
Single take. One demonstration. Production-ready in about five minutes.
No cuts, no speed-ups, no teleoperation. What you see is what the operator did and what the robot then did.
00:00
Human demonstrates the task
The operator builds one assembly in front of the 3D camera.
~02:00
Task graph and strategies compiled
AiKit extracts what changed in the world and compiles an explicit robot program.
~05:00
Robot executes the task
Trajectories are generated for the arm that is actually there. Zero lines of robot code written.
Turn-key hardware
Everything you need to add vision and intelligent gripping to one arm.
Your AiKit subscription is not just software. It is a complete, production-ready retrofit package for one industrial robot, designed to earn its keep from day one.
Included in the kit
- 3D camera with factory-grade perception and calibration
- Gripper and robot interface
- Compute unit running the task compiler and execution layer
- Cabling and supports
Compatibility
Universal Robots (ROS 2) and FANUC arms at launch. More brands planned. Contact us to prioritize drivers for your robots.
How it works
The task compiler: one demonstration becomes a robust industrial routine.
AiKit does not imitate the operator’s motion. It observes what changed in the world, grounds it in your CAD models, and compiles an explicit, inspectable robot program that is regenerated for the parts and the arm in front of it.
Phase 1
Knowledge ingestion
Upload your CAD, STL or OBJ files. AiKit parses the geometry and assigns material textures for robust recognition in variable lighting.
Phase 2
One-shot demonstration
Place the real parts on the work surface and build one target assembly in front of the camera. The robot observes and learns spatial relationships and assembly logic in real time.
Phase 3
Autonomous execution
Once taught, AiKit takes over and keeps optimizing inside the calibrated zone while it runs.
Loop
Handles real-world variation within the calibrated zone, cycle after cycle.
Localization
Detects parts in 3D space regardless of rotation or position.
Motion planning
Executes collision-aware pick-and-place and assembly trajectories.
Recovery
Failures are visible in the task graph and can be replayed and tuned without touching code.
Installation
Retrofit in 60 minutes. No code.
1 Mechanical
Bolt on the camera and gripper.
2 Electrical
Plug robot and camera into the compute unit.
3 Software
Load the local web interface.
Result
No PLC rewrites. No ROS integration. No external integrator bill. You keep your safety lines and layout; we upgrade the brain.
Operator-first interface
Everything is driven from a browser, hosted on the compute unit.
Assembly Manager
Drag and drop CAD models and define recipes.
Dashboard
Real-time cell status and diagnostics.
Visual logging
Replay failures visually to tune the process without digging into code logs.
Scope
CAD-known, shape-stable parts are the target.
A clear boundary is what makes industrial reliability plausible. We narrow the problem to win the factory.
In scope
- Rigid industrial parts
- Moderately compliant objects
- Parts with known CAD or 3D models
Borderline
- Rubber-like stable shapes
- Parts with tolerances
- Constrained flexible features
Out of scope
- Fabric
- Loose cables
- Rubber bands and highly deformable items
Robotics as a service
Automation as an operating expense, not a capital project.
AiKit subscription
$10,000 per year in the US. €10,000 per year in the EU.
- Hardware included: full use of camera, edge computing and gripper
- Over-the-air updates to the Cognivix neural stack
- Remote setup help, troubleshooting and tuning
- Full hardware replacement for normal industrial wear
Replace weeks of custom engineering with a single subscription. If the robot saves you three hours of manual labor per week, the system pays for itself. Everything else is margin.
Order AiKit
Choose your region to order online. Deployment and first-level support are available through certified integrators in the US and EU, starting with IDT Solution.
