Deterministic Speed: Powering Industry 5.0 & Human-Robot Collaboration
Hadeon Robotics is accelerating the transition to Industry 5.0 by enabling resilient, human-centric processes. Our advanced trajectory optimization and deterministic software bridge the gap between complex machine operations and the human workforce, enabling true Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC) in fenceless environments.
Solving the Core Robotics Gap & Skilled Labor Shortage
The Industry Constraint (The Problem)
Current robot integration is costly ($30K–$120K average per robot) and slow (2–8 weeks to production). This high barrier to entry is compounded by:
- Skilled Labor Crisis: Over 52% of integrators still rely on manual programming and proprietary languages, creating a major bottleneck.
- Legacy Systems: Integrating new robots with existing legacy systems remains a complex, time-consuming, and expensive hindrance to adoption.
- Reactive Safety: Most collision avoidance is reactive (stopping), not predictive, which limits true Human-Robot Collaboration.
The Hadeon Solution: Immediate Value for Integrators & SMEs
Hadeon provides a unified software solution that delivers immediate, measurable value for integrators and small/medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
- Faster Programming: Automated trajectory generation cuts setup time by up to 90% (from weeks to 1-2 days).
- Dynamic HRC Safety: Predictive, model-based collision avoidance delivers 35% shorter, safer paths, enabling workers and machines to operate side-by-side.
- Lower Costs: Our plug-and-play integration enables 80% faster deployment and 50% lower integration costs, generating up to $120K in value per typical customer.
Our Foundation: Deterministic Optimization
Hadeon Robotics is built on cutting-edge PhD research in robotics and optimization. Our model-based approach provides guaranteed, consistent performance and reliable, sub-second trajectories—bypassing the unpredictability of AI/ML for safety-critical HRC settings.
Expert Robotics, No Experts Required
Our no-code solution bypasses the need for specialized robot programming knowledge, directly addressing a key industry challenge: lack of employee training.
Real-time Optimization
Compute near-optimal trajectory in milliseconds for dynamic industrial environments, ensuring reliable, high-precision results for complex tasks.
Vendor Independent
Plug-and-play integration across major robot brands and SDKs, including Kinova, Universal Robots, and Yaskawa.
