Standard Bots Co. today said that it has acquired all of the intellectual property, or IP, of READY Robotics, which had developed the ForgeOS robot-agnostic operating system. Standard Bots said the acquisition of READY Robotics’ software, patents, and trademarks will enable its own software to work across robot brands.
The New York-based company and founding partner of the New York Robotics Network said it plans to market READY’s application programming interface (API) with its own training software. It also plans to bring its user interface (UI) and artificial intelligence platform to NVIDIA Omniverse and other robot makers.
“The READY team over many years wrote some amazing software — a unified API that talks to every major robot brand,” stated Evan Beard, CEO of Standard Bots. “With this acquisition, I’m more excited than ever about what we’ll be able to offer the market in the coming months.”
