Overview

Robot motion planning as a software component

byte robotics Headless brings our planning and optimization technology into your application. Your software supplies the task and robot-cell data; byte robotics finds suitable robot motion.

For software vendors and development teams. Use the technology in engineering tools, configurators, digital twins or specialized automation applications.

Your interface, your workflow. Headless provides motion planning without a predefined user interface, so you can integrate it into the way your application works.

Define the integration together. We review data formats, robot kinematics, geometry, process requirements and the required output against your software architecture. Deployment and licensing are also part of this discussion.

Put planning results to work. Your application consumes the generated motion for simulation, evaluation or a downstream programming workflow. Validation of the complete process remains part of your automation solution.

Process

Bring motion planning into your application

Step 1

Agree on inputs and interfaces

Define how your application will provide geometry, the robot model, process positions and task constraints.

Step 2

Generate robot motion

The byte robotics engine searches for feasible motion and optimizes the result against the agreed requirements.

Step 3

Use the result in your product

Feed the motion into your interface, simulation or downstream program generation, then evaluate it in the context of your application.

Features

Make motion planning part of your product

Less manual path planning

Generate robot motion from the task definition and reduce repetitive programming steps.

Account for collisions in the model

Include geometry and obstacles in the search for suitable motion from the outset.

Optimize cycle times

Evaluate alternative movements with the performance of your robot cell in mind.

Assess changes sooner

Regenerate motion after layout or process changes and compare the results.

Build on existing data

Use the geometry and process information already available in your engineering workflow.

Funding & recognition

Supported on the path from research to industry.

Public funding helped us turn research into robust industrial technology. In 2023, the team behind byte robotics, then known as AuRora, won the Automotive cluster of the IQ Innovation Award Central Germany. Two awards in the Startup Competition – Digital Innovations followed in 2025.
