Break your robot before the world does. Introducing Zynoptes (ALL18), an Autonomous Simulation Engineer for Robotics that finds and fixes issues before robots reach the customer's site. You bring your robot’s task and code. Zynoptes builds the simulations, runs hundreds of scenarios, and validates code fixes so your team... can confidently deploy. Congratulations on the launch, Owen Bales and Maxim Kern!show more

@Zynoptes never thought dew would be the thing that breaks a robot lol curious what the third problem was? the one it didn't fix

@Zynoptes Congrats on the launch! Rooting for @theOwenBales

@Zynoptes Congrats on the Launch @theOwenBales!!!

@Zynoptes can it start from a URDF we already have or does it need a full sim set up?

@Zynoptes Zynoptes also flags runs that finish without the job actually done. For a panel-cleaning robot, how would a field crew even catch that one?

@Zynoptes how do you pick the held-back worlds? set aside before the run or generated after the fix?

@Zynoptes can you steer it mid-run, like telling it to focus on recovery after the first failures?

@Zynoptes how long did it take to build the first solar farm from the description?

@Zynoptes which industry is asking for this most so far, solar or warehouses?

@Zynoptes killing the drive out and test again loop is the whole pitch

@Zynoptes how many worlds before you'd trust a fix on a real robot?

@Zynoptes does it pull in real logs from the site, or start purely from the description?

@Zynoptes can you re-run the 47 failing worlds after every code change, like a regression suite?

@Zynoptes what's the weirdest failure it's found in a world nobody thought to build?

@Zynoptes Testing in sim before the customer site is the right order. Food plants work the same way: a robot that first meets a wet floor, a slick tray, or an odd-shaped cut on day one makes for a bad day. Break it early, ship it boring.

@Zynoptes Owen, what happened to the third problem? something outside PC-1's code?

@Zynoptes which industry is asking for this most so far, solar or warehouses?

@Zynoptes is the air-gapped version the same product or a separate setup?

@Zynoptes is the spend cap set per campaign or per machine?

@Zynoptes who decides what counts as clean in the sim, the robotics team or Zynoptes?

@Zynoptes does it work for Gazebo teams or is Isaac Sim the better place to start?

@Zynoptes Catching failures early saves time, reduces costs, and makes robots more reliable.

@Zynoptes This is an exciting step toward smarter and more dependable autonomous robotics.

@Zynoptes Zynoptes is taking robotics simulation to the next level by identifying issues before deployment

@Zynoptes Autonomous simulation engineering could become a critical part of the future of robotics.

@Zynoptes Testing and fixing problems before robots reach customers is a huge advantage for robotics teams.

@Zynoptes ok but the solar panel prompt opens a review screen about a ship hull crawler staying attached underway. kind of matters which robot those 400 worlds were for

@Zynoptes Breaking the robot in simulation before the real world does is a powerful approach.
