About ROBOSECT

Turning Robotics Research into Industrial Innovation.

From research to factory floor, we transform complex automation challenges into intelligent robotic solutions.

ROBOSECT is an Italian deep-tech startup and University of Bologna spin-off specializing in AI-driven robotic automation. We develop advanced technologies that combine Artificial Intelligence, Computer Vision,Digital Twins, and Motion Planning to automate manufacturing processes involving cables, wiring harnesses, connectors, and other deformable objects.

Born from years of academic research and European innovation projects, our solutions enable robots to perform tasks that traditionally required human expertise—bringing greater efficiency, precision, flexibility, and traceability to modern industrial production.

Why ROBOSECT

What Makes Us Different

Intelligent Robotics

We combine robotics with Artificial Intelligence to create autonomous systems capable of understanding complex industrial environments and adapting to product variability.

Digital Twin Integration

Our software directly interfaces with industrial CAD platforms such as EPLAN and production management systems, allowing robots to automatically understand product geometry, electrical connections and manufacturing data.

AI Vision

Deep-learning vision systems detect components, cables, connectors and deformable objects, generating accurate digital representations of the workspace even under challenging industrial conditions.

Motion Intelligence

Advanced collision-free planning generates safe robotic trajectories while considering cables, dress packs and other flexible objects that traditional planners cannot handle.

Human-Robot Collaboration

Our solutions are designed to support skilled operators, automating repetitive and physically demanding tasks while keeping humans in control of high-value decisions.

End-to-End Traceability

Every robotic operation is digitally documented, enabling automatic quality reports, production analytics and complete process traceability.

How It Works

Technology

AI Perception

Our AI perception stack combines RGB, RGB-D and 3D sensing with deep-learning models capable of detecting industrial components, cables, connectors and deformable linear objects. The perception system automatically reconstructs the real configuration of products, compensating for manufacturing tolerances and positioning errors while continuously monitoring process execution.

Digital Manufacturing Integration

ROBOSECT connects directly with engineering software and production databases to retrieve product information without manual programming. The platform automatically imports:

CAD models
Electrical schematics
Connection lists
Component libraries
Production data

allowing robots to configure themselves for new products with minimal operator intervention.

Intelligent Planning

Our planning engine combines:

AI reasoning
Digital twins
