About CynLr

Just like a baby's brain, CynLr Visual Intelligence stack makes Robots to instinctively see & pick any object under any ambience, without any training. (a demo video link).

Today, we don't have a robot that can fit a screw into a nut without slipping a thread. Imagine what it would take for a robot to assemble a Smartphone or a car by putting together 1000s of parts with varied shapes and weights, all in random orientations. Thus factories become complex, needing heavy customization of their environment.

CynLr enabled visual robots intuitively handles any object, even from a clutter – a universal alternative to custom machines, simplifying factory lines into modular LEGO blocks of micro-factories. Simplifying factories with robots that can pick & place any object has been a 40 year old pipe dream - touted as The Holy Grail of Robotics.

Your primary contribution will be towards assisting the Founders in building the Facility that is not merely a space to be maintained but an immersive experience for employees and visitors alike. It should narrate CynLr's research, discipline, and culture, embodying the essence of our groundbreaking work.

It is state of the art research facility spread across 13,000 sq. ft research space and is equipped to accommodate 16 robot research cells, 25 robots, a cutting-edge electronics, camera and vision laboratory, and infrastructure to train and host 50 research and development engineers at a time.
