"this would have saved us so much time"

truly you love to hear it

[Tool, Or Die @toolordiex]

Turns out if you can build cameras that keep a self-driving car on the road at 75mph, turning cameras on an assembly line like Bucket's @lasermatts makes finding flaws and variance quick and easy.

Very excited to invest in @BucketRobotics, YC S24 startup 🤖

250M lbs of plastic is wasted annually in US manufacturing. Bucket Robotics is making defect detection faster and easier to deploy.

Proud to co-invest with @ycombinator, @pioneer_fund
& other great investors!

🚀 @BucketRobotics launched! 🤖 Vision for Manufacturing

"Robotic vision for manufacturing"

⚡ Bucket Robotics helps eliminate the need for inefficient human monitoring and outdated defect detection by providing a system where they generate defect detection models using CAD files. Here's why this is a game-changer:

🌱 Early Deployment: Your defect detector can arrive at your manufacturing line before you’ve manufactured any parts. This means you can catch defects right from the get-go.

🧠 Continuous Improvement: As defects start to appear, they can automatically refine and improve the model, ensuring your system remains top-notch.

📊 Classification: The system tells you how the part is defective, allowing you to dial in your tooling configuration and maintenance cycle—e.g. when it's time to create a new mold.
