Cutting-Edge Robotic Manipulation: The Future of 3D Bin-Picking and Industrial Automation?

The robotics industry is growing – and fast. Predicted to hit $34 billion in the US this year, the robotics market is changing the way companies interact, factories assemble, and people work. The work behind these robots is no easy feat, it takes years, sometimes even decades to build the machines we rely on. So, why is robotic manipulation important and how can it provide a cutting-edge solution within the industry?

In the latest episode of CalTV, a Calvary Robotics podcast, host Mike Marseglia invites guest Jared Glover, CEO of CapSen Robotics to discuss CapSen’s history and its cutting-edge solution to bin-picking within the industry.

Marseglia and Glover go over:

1) How CapSen was founded and the market research that went into growing their 3D vision and robotic manipulation capabilities

2) What 3D bin-picking is, and why it is so important within the industry

3) The challenges to the industry and what makes this technology cutting-edge

“What’s really challenging in a lot of cases is, you know, how do you get the robot to do everything that a person would be doing…how do you get the robot to do more complicated things with the objects after they get picked out of the bin?,” said Glover. This is where cutting-edge robotic manipulation comes into play.

Glover is the CEO and Co-founder of CapSen Robotics, an advanced 3D vision and motion planning software for industrial robot automation in Pittsburgh, PA. Glover is a graduate of Carnegie Mellon University, where he earned his B.S. in Computer Science, before heading to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to complete his PhD in Computer Science.

The Cleaning Mistake Slowing Down Room Changeovers
December 22, 2025

Cleanroom changeovers often drag on not because of operator error, but because outdated or inefficient cleaning materials force teams into repetitive work that quietly erodes productivity. As manufacturers tighten contamination controls and uptime expectations, investing in higher-efficiency cleaning tools—and updating SOPs to match—has become a practical way to reclaim hundreds of lost hours each…

Annex 1 Cleaning
December 22, 2025

Annex 1 didn’t merely refine regulatory language—it fundamentally reshaped expectations around how cleanrooms are cleaned, emphasizing contamination control strategies, residue-free performance, and repeatable processes that work right the first time. As manufacturers adjust, tools and materials like advanced ultrafiber technologies are becoming essential because they support consistent first-pass cleaning without shedding or compromising sterility….

A Simple Fix For Tubing Chaos
December 22, 2025

In regulated cleanroom environments, small oversights like tubing dragging on the floor or taped makeshift supports can quietly undermine both contamination control and operator safety. As facilities push for higher throughput and stricter compliance, purpose-built solutions such as elevated tubing management systems are becoming less of a convenience and more of an operational standard. By…

Crafted Journey How To: Turning AI Ambition into a Real Data Strategy with Arvind Mozumdar
December 19, 2025

As AI adoption accelerates across industries, leaders are under growing pressure to “do something” with data—often before they’re sure what meaningful action looks like. Research shows that while a majority of executives believe AI will transform their business, far fewer feel confident in their organization’s data readiness or governance to support it responsibly. This gap…
