Reticulate Micro Ships First Government Order to U.S. Army for VAST™

Published

U.S. Department of Defense to Benefit from Reticulate’s Ultra-efficient Video-Streaming Platform 

PALM BAY, Fla., Aug. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Reticulate Micro, Inc., a commercial and defense technology company dedicated to delivering trusted and resilient communications over any transport and in any environment, announced today that it has shipped its first government order for VAST™, the company’s advanced video encoding and compression platform built to work over virtually any network at the tactical edge.

The U.S. Army selected VAST™ for its ultra-low latency, strong security, low SWaP-C (Size, weight, Power and Cost) and advanced encoding and compression technology that allows military users to stream video over transport streams deemed previously impossible. As a direct streaming solution, VAST™ delivers high-quality video in ultra-low bandwidth environments at the lowest latency possible, with no need for GPU hardware or servers. VAST™ streams direct in almost any common delivery format and supports streaming as high as 8k or as little as 10kbps.

“The feedback from customers has been extremely positive, as we have proven the ability for VAST to stream video at real-time speeds over bandwidth-constrained networks, without compromising visual fidelity,” said CEO Joshua Cryer. “We believe this is just the start for VAST adoption into major government programs that rely on high-quality streaming video to enable vehicle and drone autonomy.”

Since the beginning of the year, Reticulate has conducted multiple successful government demonstrations of VAST™ to the U.S. government and allied militaries.

Reticulate Micro’s real-time software-based encoder can compress video with a much higher efficiency than standard legacy codecs and does not suffer from the artificing and screen tearing experienced at extreme compression ratios.

Chef Robotics Physical AI Models Can Now Automate Baked Goods Packing

Published

on

By

SAN FRANCISCO, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Chef Robotics, a leader in physical AI for the food industry, today announced that Chef robots can now automate tray assembly for baked goods packing. The application places baked products, such as burger buns, chocolate chip cookies, biscotti, butter cookies, biscuits, fortune cookies, granola bars, rusks, and shortbreads into trays and packaging containers before sealing.

Watch Chef robots in action.

Baked goods packing has historically been difficult to automate for high-mix production. Each item behaves differently on the production line—a granola bar compresses under the wrong grip, while a biscotti or rusk can crack if placed at the wrong angle. Surface textures range from glazed and smooth to crumbly and irregular, and strict presentation requirements leave little room for error. This variability has made it challenging for automation systems to reliably handle baked goods at production speeds, leaving food manufacturers dependent on manual labor and traditional bakery equipment.

To address this, Chef built its baked goods packing application on its existing piece-picking capability, which uses Chef’s AI-powered computer vision and physical AI models trained across diverse real-world production environments. This allows Chef robots to assess each item’s position, shape, and orientation in real time and determine how to pick the items from the pan and place them quickly and precisely without damaging them.

The baked goods packing application supports four distinct placement capabilities.

First, Chef’s vision system detects the angle at which each item sits in the pan and reorients it after picking, placing it on the tray at the exact angle required, regardless of its original position, enabling retail-ready presentation for SKUs that require precise angular placement.

Second, Chef robots can place multiple baked goods into the same packaging container in a single automated pass, completing full tray assembly without manual intervention.

Third, for packaging containers with multiple small compartments, Chef robots can precisely place items into each designated section, including multiple items in the same compartment, using Chef’s AI vision model to detect compartment positions and orientations in real time.

Fourth, Chef’s vision system identifies the exact center of each tray and places every item at a predefined offset from that center, ensuring a uniform, consistent arrangement across every pack regardless of how trays arrive on the conveyor.

For food manufacturers evaluating bakery systems and baked goods packaging automation, the application offers higher throughput, reduced labor dependency, and consistent presentation across shifts. The capability runs on Chef’s existing robotic hardware and software, allowing manufacturers to deploy it without requiring any changes to their production lines.

Chef’s baked goods packing application is available in the U.S., Canada, Germany, and the UK and is included as part of Chef’s robotics-as-a-service (RaaS) pricing model.
