Honeybee Robotics started out as a developer of end-effectors, which added functionality to off-the-shelf robots found in factory work cells. Some of our early clients were IBM, 3M, The Salk Institute, and Nabisco.

We also developed the motion and motion control systems for a 65-ton, seven degree-of-freedom smart sign for Coca-Cola (which hung in Times Square for 11 years), a Times Square Budweiser sign, and another Coca-Cola sign in Atlanta, GA, as seen in our Art & Architecture section.

Honeybee Robotics also developed RoboTender, an automated interactive bartending system that utilizes a state-of-the-art fully programmable industrial robot to perform a wide variety of bartending and entertainment tasks and activities.

Honeybee worked with professors and students at CCNY to improve the performance of an automatic page turning device invented to assist disabled readers and performing musicians. Two prototypes were developed to compare methods of page manipulation and investigate the relative ease of manufacture of each design.
