Robots are the newest neighbors inside the University of Cincinnati's 1819 Innovation Hub, where Sensory Robotics has set up shop.
The rapidly growing startup transforms industrial safety through 3D-sensing technology.
According to the Cincinnati Business Courier, Sensory Robotics received a federal research award that will accelerate its work on next-generation robotics. The company secured a $1.25 million Small Business Innovation Research grant from the U.S. Department of Defense. The funding supports a two-year project, set to launch in October, that will adapt the company's safety-focused robotics technology into a mobile system for use in Air Force hangars.
