Micropsi Industries makes its AI-powered robot controller hardware agnostic

September 6, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Micropsi Industries’ artificial intelligence-powered robot control software Mirai, which helps automate complex tasks too difficult or costly to automate with traditional programming, will soon be accessible for all robot users.
