Restaurant robotics company Miso Robotics has announced it is working with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to begin testing the software powering its Flippy 2 and Flippy Lite robots using AWS RoboMaker.
The move to AWS RoboMaker is projected to allow Miso to run up to 50 simulations at once and will help the company turn future prototypes into functional products at a much quicker rate, according to Miso.
“Integrating into AWS RoboMaker has been a game-changer for us to scale our products and make sure the software and its updates are ready to deploy with units in the field,” said Chris Kruger, CTO of Miso Robotics.
“We will go from running 12 simulations a month with single units to doing 100 in a night. By testing hundreds of configurations in parallel, we are able to save costs and develop products faster.”
When deploying Flippy 2 and Flippy Lite through these configurations, testing will happen via simulation in the cloud.
AWS simplifies the process by validating the simulations to build a stable baseline for any new architecture or software updates.
Furthermore, comparing the performance of the units in a simulated role to the metrics of those in the field lets Miso track discrepancies and close the gap to ensure stability.
