About Mowito
Mowito develops NeuralPick, a robot-arm intelligence system that combines vision and force sensing with demonstration learning. The software helps industrial arms adapt their grasping and motion to parts that vary in position, shape or presentation.
Mowito targets automotive and electronics manufacturing, including part handling, precision assembly, inspection and machine tending. Cloud model updates allow learned behaviour to be improved across deployments, while the current product remains a software layer integrated with existing robot arms and factory cells.
