How Toggle uses AI[1]
Toggle uses computer vision and 3D sensing to localize rebar, verify fabricated parts, and guide robots that assemble reinforcement cages for construction.
- • Rebar Localization System (RLS) uses structured-light 3D scanning to map rebar geometry, intersections, and joint locations so robots can navigate dense cages and execute welding or tying
- • Toggle QC scans production parts inline and verifies holes, slots, angles, dimensions, and labels without a metrology lab or trained operator
- • Toggle OS turns construction drawings into automated robotic manufacturing programs that plan and track production
- • Company reports pre-assembled cages cut on-site rebar installation time by 70 to 90 percent and delivers assemblies up to five times faster than manual labor (vendor-reported)
AI type: Computer vision (3D structured-light scanning)
API: unknown MCP: no
