Extend Robotics (Accelerator)

Company Description: There is a huge need in industry to avoid physical labour presence in workspace. Normally for three reasons: (1) dangerous environments with risk of injury; (2) cost of operation, such as shutting down the facility for maintanence and (3) tedious and inefficient workflow, because of long travel, and preparations. Extend Robotics oversees those are the key driving force for robotic industries. Actually, the global service robot market is growing exponentially, not only In Unit sales but also in many new application areas such as inspection and maintenance. They are building a immersive interface for robot using virtual reality. Everyone can intuitively control a robot remotely. It works as the physical avatar of the user to perform manipulation tasks at human-like dexterity. So the operator who were doing the job originally can easily teleoperate the robot to finish the same job reliably and flexibly but without physical present in workspace.
