Newton Robotics

Newton Machine Vision

Robots that can See and Decide

Newton specializes in the combination of Machine Vision

and Robotics

Machines that can See and Make Decisions

From its Beginnings at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

To Today's Robotic Boiling Water Reactor Torus Re-Coating

with 4 Teams of 10 Robots

Established in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1990 as an offshoot of MIT; moved to Seattle in 1995.

Specializes in machine vision and robotics with an emphasis on automation combining machine vision with mechanics and

electronics.

Services a wide variety of industries, focusing on applications where the introduction of machine vision to robots and automation can

provide powerful new functionalities not previously available. Many of Newton’s projects are the first of a kind in the world.

Designs and manufactures all of its own machine vision and robotics software and virtually all of its own hardware, including controllers,

cameras, lighting, electronics, machine control and mechanics.

More than 15,000 Newton systems are deployed worldwide.
