Locus Robotics acquires Nexera Robotics to expand Locus Array mobile manipulation

Evidence notes

• Locus Robotics acquired Vancouver-based Nexera Robotics, adding Nexera patented NeuraGrasp end-effector technology to its mobile manipulation roadmap.
• NeuraGrasp combines AI-driven grasping intelligence, onboard sensory inputs, computer vision and a soft membrane structure to adapt to item shape, surface texture, material, porosity and weight.
• Locus said the technology will expand the range of SKU types Locus Array can pick autonomously, including porous textiles, loosely bagged items, perforated polybags, irregular packages, delicate goods and thin packaging features.
