Meet the college dropout who raised nearly $13 million to create smart robots:
In the simplest terms Elementary Robotics is using robots to visually inspect physical goods for defects. The solutions that the company offers include transition to a full inspection as opposed to previous sample-based one, remote visibility into quality and production lines, automation of the inspection process and flagging defects, as well as standardization of inspection tasks.
The way the company makes money is by selling the robots and also the software. Its clients vary from automotive manufacturing , to defense and military manufacturing to aerospace and logistics. Mo Islam, a partner at Threshold Ventures that lead the round wrote in a statement that the VC firm was impressed with Elementary’s true software-first approach.
“Elementary Robotics is one of a handful of “new wave” intelligent automation companies contending that the application of AI and robotics will enable a novel set of functions that legacy providers are ill-equipped to address,” Islam wrote. Elementary Robotics is the second company Barnehama has started. Earlier in his career, while he was still a student at Pomona College studying Cognitive Science, he cofounded Melon, an EEG tracking headband company. After getting his first investor Barnehama dropped out of school, and eventually sold Melon to AR enterprise DAQRI where he ended up working as head of design. His latest venture, the L.A. - based Elementary Robotics, currently employs 25 people and had previously raised $4.
