TLDR; Avea builds ultra low-latency teleop software that allows robotics companies to remotely control their robots using VR headsets.

What’s the problem?

When autonomous robots get stuck during deployment, teleoperation is used to recover them and capture that edge case. Today, that means keeping on-site staff on standby just to babysit deployments. It’s not scalable and hurts ROI, causing deployments to stall.

Other remote teleop softwares are clunky and unreliable for real-time control.

What’s the solution?

Sentinel allows operators to remotely teleop their robots so they can intervene when autonomy breaks down. Our software has ultra low-latency, meaning operators can react to the environment in near real-time.

With Sentinel, robotics companies can unlock the path to scaling their deployments.

A bit about us:

• We moved to SF right after graduating from UIUC last year to work on Avea
• We’ve been doing robotics since high school (shoutout FIRST!)
• We're on a mission to get robots out of the lab and into the real world

Asks: We want to talk to more robotics companies! If you or someone you know is an operator at a robotics company, please reach out.
