With participation from Whiteboard Capital and illustrious angel investors, Endiya Partners and Yali Capital led the $3 million seed round for Perceptyne, a deep tech AI-first robotics startup.
The money raised will be put toward accelerating growth, customer acquisition, and product development. The company collaborates closely with major electronics and automotive manufacturers.
Perceptyne is a company founded by Raviteja Chivukula, Jagga Raju Nadimpalli, and Mrutyunjaya Nadiminti. Their products are made to do tasks like product assembly and packaging that require dexterity similar to that of a human. The startup is developing a full-stack robotics platform that is vertically integrated and AI-driven in order to achieve this.
PR-34D and PR-9D, the company’s flagship products, are dual-arm and single-arm robots with multi-modal sensing, integrated AI and computer vision, and highly articulate end-effectors that are ideal for assembly line and manufacturing applications.
The startup claims that by drastically cutting integration times from quarters to weeks and deploying automation without requiring modifications to assembly lines, its integrated approach will assist manufacturing companies in expediting their robotic automation initiatives.
