It\u2019s not just about having a better gripper \u2013 you need a fully integrated software and hardware approach, which RightHand has nailed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Capacity\u2019s leadership team chose to invest in RightHand\u2019s RightPick&#x2122; solution, an integrated, software-driven picking solution that flexibly handles thousands of products, including never-before-seen items, and learns and adapts over time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe knew from our earliest interactions with RightHand and vetting of other solutions that this was the team and platform we wanted to partner with moving forward,\u201d said Campbell.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are tremendously excited to be working with Capacity,\u201d said Yaro Tenzer, Co-Founder and CEO of RightHand Robotics. \u201cWe share a common vision for how robotic piece-picking can be a strategic asset to their business, especially as they continue to grow at a phenomenal rate across multiple product categories and parts of the world. With every pick, the system generates data that helps us further improve performance across their entire fleet of workcells.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information about RightHand Robotics and to download a new white paper, \u201cUnderstanding the 3Rs of Robotic Piece-Picking,\u201d visit the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.righthandrobotics.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">RHR website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Capacity\u00ae, visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.capacityllc.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">our website<\/a>.
