Making Robots safe for real-world use
Building a robot is brutal.
You have scraped the hardware together. The software is not perfect, but you have managed to pull off a
decent manipulation policy and get the machine to do the exact thing you promised your investors it could do.
And when the policy fails, you have got a solid teleoperation setup that at least one engineer on your team
is highly proficient at. You are ready to deploy.
Only, there is a massive bottleneck you probably have not designed for.
You have built the machine, but you have no legal pathway to deploy it into a live customer environment. Have
you achieved formal CE certification? Completed your EMC testing? Do you have your third-party regulatory
sign-offs and verified technical documentation ready for an auditor?
What about insurance? No, not standard corporate cover. The right insurance. Traditional cyber or general
liability policies will not touch a probabilistic autonomous system capable of physically destroying millions
of pounds of industrial equipment, or worse, running over someone's Granny.
And what happens post-deployment? If your robot has an incident, can your stack automatically log the
near-misses, telemetry anomalies, and physical accidents to instantly vindicate your software and drive down
your premiums?
If the answer is no, do not panic. But stop wasting engineering hours on legal administration.
You build the robots. We will build the trust infrastructure.
