Who We Are
GIM Oy

Company Introduction
Our competence covers sensor fusion, real time 3D localisation and mapping, traversability analysis, computer vision systems and dynamic object tracking among others. We deliver software that makes mobile work machines and robots in all industries safer, more precise and more efficient – even in GNSS-challenged environments, in adverse weather conditions.With our help, your vehicles will become more intelligent.Pre-existing background IP that accelerates the developmentThe name GIM has origins at the university’s former Center of Excellence in Generic Intelligent Machines. But what does it mean?Generic means we develop technology that can be applied to all industries. For example, our 3D mapping and localisation solutions are not fixed to any particular environment or sensor technology. We maintain a generic set of tools that can be utilized to tailor customer specific applications.Intelligent machines make decisions, as opposed to traditional industrial robots that perform simple, repetitive tasks. Intelligence allows traversing in an unknown environment, facing new situations and learning from them.Professor Aarne HalmeCBO, Partner50 years of experience in mobile robotics.

From the start, the research focus was field and service robotics. At the time there were globally very few other reseach groups focusing on this topic. During 25 years Halme’s group became one of the leading mobile robotics groups in the world. In 2008, the joint venture of Automation Technology laboratory and IHA from Tampere University of Technology got the Center of Excellence (CoE) status from the Academy of Finland. It was called CoE in Generic Intelligent Machines – GIM. See the video for some examples from that time. In 2014 Prof. Halme and the core researchers decided to commercialize the research – GIM Robotics was founded. Now GIM Robotics is growing rapidly and recruiting the best brains in the robotic industry.
