What we build for healthcare and life sciences

Assistive robotic arms

Arms that help people with limited mobility with daily tasks.

  • Object detection and localization with deep learning
  • Pick-and-place, door opening and fetching objects
  • Speech control for hands-free use

Mobile manipulators for hospitals

Motion planning for robot arms on a mobile base.

  • Motion planning for dual-arm robots
  • GPU motion planning with NVIDIA cuRobo
  • Collision checks built for the robot's real shape

Lab and clean room automation

Robot arms that run delicate process steps in labs and clean rooms.

  • Precise handling of small, fragile parts and samples
  • A simple web app lets lab staff run the robot
  • Tested in simulation before the real robot runs

Rapid prototypes for new healthcare robots

A first working robot, built fast, to test with users and investors.

  • Software architecture and ROS 2 stack
  • First version in simulation, then on the robot
  • Feasibility shown before you hire a full robotics team

Inventory Management Mobile Manipulator using CuRobo

GPU-accelerated motion planning for hospital logistics robots using NVIDIA CuRobo.

FAQs

+
What software does an assistive robotic arm need?

An assistive robotic arm needs object detection, motion planning and a simple way for the user to control it, such as speech. Black Coffee Robotics built this full software stack for Robotics for Wounded Warriors' wheelchair-mounted arm, which fetches objects and opens doors.

+
Can NVIDIA cuRobo run on a custom mobile manipulator?

Yes. Black Coffee Robotics deployed GPU motion planning with NVIDIA cuRobo on a client's custom dual-arm mobile manipulator built for hospitals, after building the robot's model and collision geometry.

+
Can a robot arm automate process steps in a lab or clean room?

Yes. Black Coffee Robotics builds software for robot arms that handle small, fragile parts and samples in labs and clean rooms. A simple web app lets lab staff run the robot, and each task is tested in simulation before the real robot runs it.
