NEURA Robotics MAiRA
NEURA Robotics MAiRA is a cobot with integrated perception, offered in three sizes (S, M, L).
NEURA Robotics calls MAiRA the first commercially available cognitive robot. It combines machine vision, spatial audio processing and self-optimising workflows with a robot arm. According to the manufacturer the payload is 9 to 18 kg and the reach 1100 to 1600 mm, depending on the size. A dedicated touchless human-detection function is meant to prevent collisions. Applications mentioned are manufacturing, logistics, healthcare and aerospace. Whether the cognitive behaviour works in a specific application has to be shown in a trial.

Notable facts about MAiRA, its manufacturer and this type of robot
The first commercially sold cobot was a UR5 from Universal Robots, in December 2008.
Source: Universal Robots, company historyA cobot's payload includes the gripper. A 1 kg gripper on a 5 kg cobot leaves 4 kg for the product.
The safety rules for cobots are set out in ISO 10218 and ISO/TS 15066. The latter gives limit values for contact force per body part.
