The New York Times: How to Make a Robot Better at Its Job? Give It Eyes.
The New York Times reported from a Stellantis plant in Detroit on how Inbolt’s 3D vision turned a bottleneck robot into a top performer.
New York Times business reporter Farah Stockman visited the Stellantis assembly plant in Detroit, where a robot arm on the Dodge Durango line kept freezing whenever a panel sat slightly out of position, sometimes crashing for up to an hour. Rather than replace its fleet, Stellantis equipped the 15-year-old arm with Inbolt’s AI-powered 3D vision, allowing it to recognize parts, calculate their exact position, and adjust its own motion in real time. The article covers the results across the plant, from a sealant robot whose nozzle went from breaking seven times a shift to almost never, to the site becoming a top performer within Stellantis in under two years, with machines running Inbolt reporting up to 95% less downtime and 30% faster cycle times.
