UnderAutomation provides pure .NET and Python SDKs that let developers communicate directly with industrial robots from brands like Universal Robots, FANUC, Yaskawa, ABB, and Staubli via native TCP/IP protocols. The libraries require no robot‑side installation and include tools for kinematic transformations, program editing, and file decoding, supporting integration with .NET, Python, LabVIEW, and Matlab applications.

Problem
Integrating industrial robots into custom software often requires proprietary vendor APIs, complex setup, and robot‑side installations, leading to long development cycles and high costs for engineers and system integrators.
Solution
UnderAutomation offers pure .NET and Python SDKs that implement each robot brand’s native TCP/IP protocol, enabling developers to communicate with Universal Robots, FANUC, Yaskawa, ABB, and Staubli directly from .NET, Python, LabVIEW, or Matlab applications. The libraries require no software installation on the robot and include source code, technical support, and a perpetual licensing model. By providing ready‑to‑use kinematic transformations, program manipulation tools, and native file decoding, the SDKs let users add remote supervision, control, and data exchange with only a few lines of code. Pricing is a one‑time license per robot family, with optional paid remote assistance for implementation support.
Target Audience
Primary customers are automation engineers, OEM system integrators, and research labs that need to embed robot control and monitoring into custom applications across manufacturing, biotech, and aerospace domains.
